About The Sea Vibes Installatioun
Dës Installatioun gouf entworf mat der Sprooch vum Mier: Wellen, well se fir e Wunnprojet laanscht d'Ufer vun der Dalian Bay, China, konzipéiert gouf. D'Installatioun ass e grousse Zylinder aus duebel-Schicht Kofferplatten, besteet aus 6000 Platten déi am Kader no enger spezifescher Uerdnung opgehängt sinn. Wann een ronderëm den Zylinder geet, gesäit dës Installatioun aus wéi Wellen déi eng no der anerer lafen. Wann d'Platten sech am Mierwand beweegen, reflektéieren se blénkend Liicht a Faarwen, wat d'Gischt symboliséiert. Dësen Design reproduzéiert d'Atmosphär vun de Mierwellen mat enger fester Installatioun.

- Unique Properties
- This installation was designed using the language of the sea: waves, as it was for a residential project built along the shore of Dalian Bay, China. The installation is a huge cylinder formed by double-layer copper plates. It consists of 6000 plates which were hung in the frame according to specific permutation. When you walk around the cylinder, it looks like waves running one after another. When the plates dance in the sea wind, flashing light and colors are reflected, just like spindrift.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- 8 meters in diameter
- Tags
- SUNAC, Sea vibes, cylinder

- Design Challenge
- How to give the fixed installation a movement that resembles the endless waves of the sea was the biggest challenge. In the end the cylinder form with hanging cooper plates was the best sollution.
- Research
- As the residential project is built along the shore of Dalian Bay of China, the first thing capture our eyes is the specific feature of the project: the SEA. This inspires us to design an installation at the entrance using the language of the sea:waves, in order to echo the sea. As a matter as fact we further applied this language to the whole space of the demonstrate center, including: the logo, lamps and signage, making the space visually a whole.
