Meduse Pipes

Organic lines inspired by underwater sea life. A shisha pipe like a mysterious animal getting alive with every inhalation. My idea of design was to uncover all interesting processes that take place in the pipe such as bubbling, smoke flow, fruit mosaic and the play of lights and thus provide demanding smoker additional value into very traditional concept of smoking a water pipe. Shishas are designed to be prepared with real fruit pieces - cocktail in glass corpus - which has never been done before. This enhance the experience not only visually, but it also strongly affects the final taste.

Tensegrity Space Frame

The Tensegrity space frame light utilizes R.B.Fuller's principle of 'Less for more' to produce a light fixture using only its light source and electrical wire. Tensegrity becomes the structural means by which both work mutually in compression and tension to produce a seemingly discontinuous field of light defined only by its structural logic. Its scalability, and economy of production speak to a commodity of endless configuration whose luminous form gracefully resists the pull of gravity with a simplicity that affirms the paradigm of our epoch: To achieve more whilst using less.

Folded Tones

Rugs are inherently flat, the goal was to challenge this simple fact. The illusion of three-dimensionality was achieved with just three colours. The variety of tones and depth of the rug is dependent on the width and density of the stripes, rather than a large palette of colours that may jar with a particular space, thus allowing for flexible use. From above or far away, the rug resembles a folded sheet. However, while sitting or lying on it, the illusion of the folds may not be perceptible. This lead to the use of simple repetitive lines that can be enjoyed as an abstract pattern up close.

M Lamp

The M lamp is a wireless task light that can be transported anywhere within the home, office and in between. It stands at 9", projects up to 3,000 lux of warm light from its movable head. This is approximately equivalent to a 40W incandescent bulb. In its standard mode the Lamp’s dimmable LED will emit 1,000 lux of light for more than 18 hours on a single charge.

Flux

Mehran Gharleghi and Amin Sadeghy from Studio INTEGRATE have created “Flux Table” within their exploration of fusing historically rooted geometries with contemporary modes of computation. Its intricate form and pattern is derived from a basic "Toranj", a mathematical pattern used in Iranian architecture; from which a smooth transition between two layers of a strict geometric pattern is constructed. The geometrical pattern at the top surface fuses to the bottom layer through a series of multi-directional arches. The generated form is manufactured using digital fabrication.
