Unique Properties: The most important feature of this product is the reuse of gas capsules, which is discarded after use and harms the environment.
The ability to recharge and use cheap fuel to charge the product, longer burning time and flame without smoke and odor due to the use of quality fuels are among the other advantages of this plan.
Dimensions & Packaging: Diameter 27 cm / height 17 cm
Tags: Candle, Concrete, modern design, modern, Concretecandle
Production Technology: Concrete-like powder and gas capsule is the material used in this product.
Design Challenge: The purpose of producing this product was to present and introduce a kind of candle in the form of modern spaces. Considering that today's candles (solid paraffin) will be completely deformed after a few hours and while burning, we decided to It does not have two negative characteristics and at the same time it can act as a sculpture when the flames are off.
Research: Extensive research on the current human lifestyle and needs in the environment, as well as the excessive use of fuel and resources on the planet led us to design products inspired by nature and modern appearance. To be both a narrator of a story of human excellence and an adaptation to current living conditions (environmental protection).
Inspiration: The source of design inspiration for this product was the Zagros Mountains in Iran. Due to the special importance of this mountain range in creating four seasons in the geographical location of Iran and respect for the environment, the main design idea was put on the topography of this mountain range. Mountains are a symbol of the connection between heaven and earth and the origin of the life-giving sun's heat. So we placed the flames between these lines to be a symbol of it.
Project Duration: The project designed in December 2021 in Isfahan.
Operation Flow: The use of concrete and metal-like materials (gas capsules) for presence in modern spaces, as well as to meet the possibility of presence in a wide range of spaces and provide a high degree of coordination in accompaniment with other items
