JND.1. On Lines
NEMO / 2018
Collaboration with Jean Nouvel Design
“A simple and precise game.
A game of coloured surfaces.
On a bright line, everybody images his own skyline and his coloured lights. Blurry, contrasting, pure, rhythmic, cold, warm, erotic... Everyone gets lost depending on situations and desires...”
Jean Nouvel
The whole idea here was to create a playfull and modular lighting in a very minimalistic way.
We used 6 plexiglas plates and 4 grooves with a lot of different combination possible.
Plexiglas was a perfect option to have transparency and color juxtaposition. The light really help to emphasize the effect.
And because we wanted to touch a wider public, we also did a version completely transparent, with a little touch of colour with a square red plates.
It can look like a very easy project, but proportions are key here and we spent a lot of times to have this exact final result.
