About Serena 가습기
세레나(Serena)는 현대적인 주거 공간을 위해 디자인된 가습기입니다. 세레나는 물방울이 중력을 거슬러 위로 흘러 올라가는 듯한 착시를 만들어냅니다. 이 효과는 시각적 잔상 원리에 기반하며, 소형 워터 펌프와 LED 조명의 스트로브를 동기화하여 구현됩니다. 투명한 외피는 높은 광투과율을 지녀 시각적 효과를 한층 강화합니다. 세레나의 크기는 높이 478mm, 지름 260mm입니다. 터치스크린과 스마트 제어 패널을 통해 거슬러 올라가는 액체의 속도와 밝기를 설정할 수 있습니다. 세레나는 실내 공기에 습도를 더하는 동시에 장식적인 오브제 역할도 합니다.

Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- TBased on the principle of visual persistence, the weightless humidifier uses LED lights and precise control to create the illusion of liquid backflow, and the magical effect of water droplets forming the opposite direction, enriching the interactive experience of the humidifier. The product has a practical air humidification function and incorporates artistic design, which is suitable for modern home environments and becomes a unique decoration in the space.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The humidifier measures 478 mm in height and 260 mm in diameter
- Tags
- weightless humidifier, optical illusion, interesting design, air humidifier, home decor
- Production Technology
- Visual persistence technology creates the illusion of liquid flowing back through the strobe technology of the LED light source. The miniature water pump and precise water flow control ensure perfect synchronization of water flow stability and light efficiency. The transparent material molding process ensures the delicate light transmittance of the shell and enhances the overall visual effect.
- Design Challenge
- The visual illusion is precisely controlled to ensure that the light and water flow are synchronized to avoid errors in the illusion effect. The water pump and LED light are precisely matched to ensure the visual effect while requiring functional humidification. The material selection is combined with aesthetics, and the shell material needs to have a high light transmittance to meet the aesthetics of modern home design.
- Research
- Based on visual phenomena, this study designs and implements a weightless humidifier. By precisely controlling the water flow and the stroboscopic effect of LED lights, it creates a visual illusion of water droplets flowing backwards, which functionally meets the actual needs of air humidification. This study aims to explore the combination of visual art and practical home appliances, and use visual illusion technology to make everyday products interesting and creative.
- Inspiration
- The design is inspired by visual illusion art and the gravity of nature. The design breaks people's cognition of conventional physical phenomena through the backflow of water droplets, creating an artistic effect full of fun and surprises. It takes the phenomenon of visual persistence as the core technology and combines it with the humidification function to bring a new visual experience.
- Project Duration
- It starts on May 1, 2022 and ends on June 25, 2022, and is located at Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts
- Operation Flow
- The loss-in-weight humidifier is easy to operate. Users can adjust the function of the humidifier through the touch screen or the smart control panel. The LED lighting effect is synchronized with the operation of the water pump. Users can set the speed and brightness of the liquid return to create a different visual experience.
