About The Sea Vibes Installation

Denna installation utformades med havets språk: vågor, eftersom den designades för ett bostadsprojekt längs stranden av Dalianbukten, Kina. Installationen är en enorm cylinder formad av dubbelskiktade kopparplattor, bestående av 6000 plattor upphängda i ramen enligt en specifik permutation. När man går runt cylindern ser denna installation ut som vågor som löper efter varandra. När plattorna rör sig i havsvinden reflekteras blixtrande ljus och färger, vilket symboliserar havsskum. Denna design återskapar stämningen av havets vågor med en fast installation.

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.

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.
