About Feel Ordinary Life Función Primaria: Velas Aromáticas

Texto do Libro: Feel Ordinary Life é un conxunto de velas aromáticas con forma de xenxibre, allo e cebolía, tres ingredientes comúns da cociña chinesa. As velas son feitas a man e moldeadas para copiar a forma natural de cada planta. Cada vela contén a súa propia mestura de aceites esenciais. A vela de xenxibre presenta notas florais e afrutadas, mentres que a vela de cebolía presenta notas amadeiradas e florais. As formas asimétricas fan que cada vela arda de xeito diferente a medida que a cera se derrite. O deseño conecta formas familiares da cociña cunha experiencia olfactiva refinada.

Production Technology
The handmade candles are meticulously crafted to replicate the exact shape of ginger, garlic, and scallions. Each candle is infused with a unique blend of essential oils, carefully curated to capture the essence of these culinary staples. The ginger candle features top notes of aldehydes, pear, and lily-of-the-valley, middle notes of iris, rose, and orange, and base notes of musk, patchouli, and abelmoschus. The garlic candle opens with a fresh blend of coriander, lavender, and white pine, followed by a spicy heart of nutmeg, pepper, and hemlock, and a woody base of iris, musk, and cedarwood. The scallion candle begins with citrusy top notes of bergamot, cardamom, and vetiver, transitioning to a heart of sandalwood, cypress, and abelmoschus, and finishing with a soft base of white musk, violet, and patchouli.
Design Challenge
The mold-making process is very difficult, requiring absolute precision to ensure a natural, vivid, and lifelike reproduction of the plant's form
Inspiration
Inspired by the everyday habits of Chinese people, this product offers a surprising twist on the familiar. By transforming the pungent ingredients of ginger, garlic, and scallions into elegant candles, we create a stark contrast between the expected and the unexpected. This unexpected juxtaposition of form and function is designed to spark curiosity and delight.
Project Duration
This limited-edition gift is exclusively available at Tsutaya Books, OoEli, Hangzhou from April 2023 to April 2024.
Operation Flow
Due to the asymmetrical shapes of the ginger, garlic, and scallion, each candle burns uniquely, constantly evolving as the wax melts. Every lighting is a surprising work of art.
