Vessel | Human Scale
Savas Dimopoulus, the particle physicist who created one of the two currently popular theories about the origin of the universe, put it very well when he said:
Why do humans do science? Why do they do art? The things that are least important for our survival are the very things that make us human.
Physics is one way to explain the world. Art is another. Both come together beautifully in Vessel, Todd Bracher’s lighting design for Human Scale.
Rather than approaching the pendant design as a minimalist aesthetic exercise, Brooklyn-based Todd Bracher Studio leveraged their expert network to achieve a light management for an omnidirectional 98 CRI LED which would eliminate glare completely. The main goal was to create a light throw that would beautifully render any social exchange or activity around the pendant.
A leading optical physicist was involved to make sure that the photons emitted by the light source would be perfectly controlled in a way that would deliver them away from the eye of those lit by the lamp. This collaboration resulted in a new ray-trace technology which enables Vessel to deliver optically perfect LED light through a quartz crystal light guide. Using a physics phenomenon called TIR, or Total Internal Reflection, Vessel redirects the glare produced by the LED and diffuses it evenly through the light guide toward the intended surface.
The Cooperage by Chris Dyson Architects
After a five-year design and construction process, Chris Dyson Architects have finished extending and renovating the Cooperage, a property located on a constrained former industrial site in central London.
The building dates back to the early 1900s, and the reconfigured building clearly celebrates the remaining original elements, which had been neglected during previous renovation works in the 1990s. CDA worked meticulously to identify these opportunities, stripping back many of the recent additions to reveal and showcase the original historic fabric.

Next stop Europe...
So decided its time to revive this old blog since in less than 72 hours I leave for my first ever trip to Europe! Pretty great to see my last post was about how the next place on my list was Europe. Has just taken me almost 3 years to get here! But a finished Master’s degree and a year of work experience under my belt has definitely been worth the wait. Will try to update as good but have a lot to see in only a month,

CAP in Paris
The renovation of an old 19th century photography studio by AAVP in the heart of the Opera Madeleine haussmannian district, into two prestigious private apartments disrupted the uses of its distribution of the Second Empire. Access to it is via the service staircase and the narrow corridor leading to the rooms once reserved for the servants. Each of the apartments is a duplex with the bedrooms and bathrooms on the lower level, reception areas, as the living room and kitchen, being found at the upper level under a contemporary glazing, re-designed meticulously for the occasion.

Centre International d´Art Pariétal Montignac Lascaux in Dordogne
The Vézère valley in Dordogne, France, is a mecca of prehistory. It contains about 15 major sites, all on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The Lascaux cave has one of the most important groups of Paleolithic rock wall art, both by its number and by the exceptional quality of its works. The Lascaux IV project designed by Snøhetta in collaboration with Associate Architect SRA Architectes and exhibition designers Casson Mann, is in line with the decades of reflections and initiatives focused on reconciling the safeguarding of a heritage that is unique for the history of humanity.
