The Design
About Feel Ordinary Life アロマキャンドル
「Feel Ordinary Life」は、中国料理に欠かせない三つの身近な食材、生姜・にんにく・葱をかたどったアロマキャンドルのセットです。キャンドルは手作りで、それぞれの植物が持つ自然な形状を忠実に再現した型を用いて成形されています。各キャンドルには独自にブレンドされたエッセンシャルオイルが配合されており、生姜のキャンドルはフローラルでフルーティーな香り、葱のキャンドルはウッディでフローラルな香りを漂わせます。左右非対称なかたちにより、蝋が溶けるにつれて一つひとつのキャンドルが異なる燃え方を見せます。台所で見慣れたかたちと洗練された香りの体験を結びつけたデザインです。

- 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.
