Olu fakelo lwayilwa kusetyenziswa ulwimi lolwandle: amaza, njengoko lwaluyelwe iprojekthi yendawo yokuhlala ecaleni konxweme lweDalian Bay, eTshayina. Olu fakelo sisituba esikhulu esenziwe ngamacwecwe obhedu anomaleko omabini, abandakanya amacwecwe angama-6000 axhonywe kwisakhiwo ngokulandela ukucwangciswa okuthile. Xa uhamba ujikeleza isituba, olu fakelo lubonakala ngathi ngamaza alandelana omnye emva komnye. Xa amacwecwe ehamba emoyeni wolwandle, ukukhanya nemibala kuyabonakaliswa ngokubenyezela, kumele amawela amanzi olwandle. Olu yilo luphinde lwaveza imvakalelo yamaza olwandle ngefakelelo elimileyo.

- 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
- Production Technology
- Double cooper plates, cylinder frame
- 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.
