The Design

About Ruby Pixels Oorbellen

Het ontwerp van de Ruby Pixels is geïnspireerd door videogames uit de jaren 80 en neonrode lichten in stedelijke reclame, evenals door de mozaïekschikking van islamitische patronen die in dit ontwerp zichtbaar is. De belangrijkste uitdaging was om te voldoen aan de marktvraag naar sieraden in verschillende vormen van beschermende symbolen, waarbij de natuurlijke vormen werden getransformeerd tot organische ringen met dezelfde emotie, en prestatie en esthetiek werden verenigd naast de emotionele verbinding tussen de oorbel en de gebruiker.

Production Technology

Design Challenge
The contrast of combining an unconventional and modern design of the earrings at the top with the classic design (teardrop-like hanging at the bottom) and creating a work with high visual dynamics has been the main challenge in this design.
Research
How the asymmetrical color arrangement of red and white jewelry on the upper part and also the difference in height of these stones and the use of common claws to mount them, ergonomic placement of the upper part of the ear and hanging tears-shaped stone at the bottom, all with many Prototypes and multiple trials were obtained.
Inspiration
The design of this earring is inspired by the turning on and off of light pixels on screens such as 80s video games (like Atari) on a black background or even neon red lights in urban advertising, as well as inspiration from the mosaic arrangement of Islamic patterns in this design that is visible.
Project Duration
The project has been designed and produced in Tehran, Iran in 2020.
Operation Flow
It visually remembers the start of the spring with an asymmetrically combination of white and pink blossoms. The asymmetrical and random variety of colors create excitement in a modern atmosphere that calms by leading to a big tear at the end of the earring.
