Beethoven

Beethoven is a series of wall mounted smart home control panels. The layout draws on the musical staff, with physical buttons arranged like notes and joined by flowing lines. A circular touch screen and a knob allow precise adjustment, while the buttons give direct access to functions. Proximity sensing makes each panel glow softly on approach and dim on departure, avoiding nighttime glare. Ambient lighting offers three dynamic effects and eight colors. Finishes include painted polycarbonate, antiqued red copper and deep iron black.

Light Leaf

LightLeaf is a daylight redirecting louver system for homes with limited natural light. Conventional blind slats are replaced with adjustable light guiding blades that capture ambient daylight and reflect it deeper into the room. The blades combine a high reflectance upper surface with a diffusive lower finish to control glare. A lightweight aluminium frame with pivot hinges and position locks lets the unit be pushed outward when more daylight is needed. The system supports modular fabrication and non invasive installation on existing window frames.

Madonna

The Madonna tile collection translates the drapery structures of 15th century icon paintings into a modular ceramic relief system. Through controlled geometry and calibrated color layering, painted fabric folds are transformed into three dimensional surfaces with tactile depth. Each tile can be rotated and combined to generate varied, non repetitive compositions across walls, floors or ceilings. Metallic luster detailing and reactive glaze effects introduce chromatic richness, allowing historical visual language to operate within contemporary architectural contexts.
