About No. 27 Kandila nga Likidong Sugnod

Ang No. 27 usa ka sculptural nga kandila nga gihimo alang sa ambient nga suga sa modernong mga interior. Ang balud-balud nga base gihulma gikan sa engineered nga konkreto ug nakuha ang porma niini gikan sa usa ka bulkan. Ang transparent nga heat-resistant nga mga tubo nga bildo nga lain-lain og gitas-on gipahimutang sa konkretong base ug nagsilbi nga mapun-an pag-usab nga mga sudlanan sa likidong sugnod. Ang metal gigamit lamang alang sa mga wick holder, nga naglimite sa pagbalhin sa kainit ug nagsuporta sa luwas ug padayon nga mga siga. Ang mapun-an pag-usab nga sistema sa sugnod nagwagtang sa basura nga wax. Ang piyesa adunay sukod nga 56 cm ang gitas-on, 32 cm ang gilapdon ug 31 cm ang kahabogon.

Unique Properties
This design features a modified concrete base paired with transparent glass reservoirs. Utilizing a refillable liquid fuel system, it eliminates wax waste and provides an everlasting, clean flame. The varying heights of the glass tubes create a dynamic, sculptural lighting landscape. By contrasting raw concrete with delicate glass, it offers a sustainable, mess-free, and elegant ambient lighting experience perfectly suited for modern interiors.

Production Technology
Production relies on combining modified concrete, heat-resistant glass, and minimal metal. The undulating volcanic base is cast from engineered concrete, providing thermal resistance and solid stability. Transparent glass tubes function as liquid fuel reservoirs, seamlessly integrated into the base. Metal is exclusively used for the wick holders, ensuring safe, continuous flames while preventing excessive heat transfer.
Design Challenge
The core challenge was harmonizing the brutalist weight of a concrete caldera with the fragile verticality of glass tubes. Technically, engineering thermal safety was paramount. We had to ensure continuous liquid-fuel flames wouldn't crack the glass or overheat the concrete base. By isolating the heat using minimal metal wick holders, we successfully resolved thermal transfer issues, merging permanent geological sculpture with dynamic, safe fire in a zero-waste system.
Research
Research focused on the environmental and functional flaws of traditional solid paraffin candles, which deform and generate waste. We investigated sustainable alternatives maintaining structural integrity while providing authentic illumination. Studies in material contrasting—specifically engineered concrete's thermal resistance against glass—led to a refillable liquid fuel system. The result merges brutalist geology with eco-conscious lighting, eliminating wax waste entirely.
Inspiration
Inspired by the majestic form and raw energy of a volcano, this design translates geological power into a domestic artifact. The undulating concrete base mimics a dormant caldera, grounding the piece in brutalist stability. Emerging from this crust, transparent glass tubes act as volcanic vents, channeling fuel to culminate in living flames. It captures the exact moment of eruption—where cold, permanent stone conceptually meets the dynamic, ethereal energy of fire.
Project Duration
The project designed in December 2025 in Isfahan.
Operation Flow
Interaction begins as a mindful ritual. The user manually fills the transparent glass tubes with liquid fuel and ignites the wicks. This tactile process awakens the dormant concrete caldera, transforming it into an active, glowing landscape. The varying heights of the tubes guide the eye upward, mimicking a volcanic eruption of light. Users experience a clean, continuous, and dynamic ambient glow, fostering a deep connection between human, raw matter, and living fire.
