Title:
Stasis
Concept Statement:
Stasis is a visually and functionally adaptable luminaire. By turning the soft grip handles on its opposing sides, the light segment can be easily rotated for creating direct or indirect lighting, as well as for highlighting different spaces. The seamless form was inspired by the formulation of microcrystals during chemical reactions. A visually unobtrusive form that materializes in long bar-like lengths gently makes up its environment. Stasis achieves this with its minimum visible materials while also bringing a sense of balance into its space. No matter what kind of space it’s in, whether it’s anarchic or harmonious, Stasis will always be the subtle yet powerful centerpiece.
Project Specs:
Main body that holds the light is made from a 1 1/5 inch diameter aluminum extrusion. The length can be determined based on the space that Stasis is installed in. Extrusion can be cut length wise on a bandsaw to create an opening for the light filter. Light filters are made from plastic tubings cut in half and glued inside the main body. The side arms on both sides can also be made from aluminum extrusions bent with a pipe bender. Farther details of fabrication techniques and materials will exceed the 100 word limit.

Bio:
Hello, my name is Scott Yu-Jan. I am currently a fourth year industrial design student at Emily Carr University. My body of work is emphasized on exploring the way people interact with objects. In a digital age of virtual interphases, touch surfaces, and monotonous buttons, I hope to reimagine the way we interact with objects by considering its possibilities for greater accessibility, functionality, and creativity.
