“Liiu” by Luceplan
Liiu is a modular lighting sculpture that uses balance and weightlessness to construct a composition that is adjustable for any setting. Luminous LEDs are woven into a slender stainless steel structure, creating a pattern that transforms as you move around it. Like a willow tree in the breeze, the light curtain is mesmerizing in its simultaneous presence and ephemerality.
Wires RVS, Acrylic,
A modular system with a grid of 10 cm wide.
Designed by Vantot

Envisions' Milan exhibition shows the process instead of the final product
Dutch collective Envisions has experimented with ways of cutting into, printing on, and transforming materials for its Wood In Process exhibition at Milan design week.
The exhibition, which has been created in partnership with Spanish wood manufacturer Finsa, showcases discoveries made by designers during the research phase, rather than completed pieces.
It sets out to emphasise the possibilities of the process, which the collective sees as an undervalued and rarely explored part of the industry.
"Functioning as a conceptual breeding ground, the preliminary phases of a product's formation present limitless possibilities and deserve the spotlight in their own right," said the collective, which was founded by students at Design Academy Eindhoven.
"Corporate companies often stick to the road of proven practices and clearly defined objectives, missing the possibly fruitful alternatives discovered while taking the path less travelled."
Each of the 12 members of the collective were invited to visit Finsa's production facilities to find potential new uses for its range of materials, as well as by-products created during manufacturing.
The results will be presented at the group's exhibition at Palazzo Clerici during Milan design week.
Rather than using MDF as a cheap substitute for real wood, Roos Goomperts has added collage and cut-out shapes to turn it into a more striking choice for flooring or furniture.
Simone Post has similarly played with MDF's reputation as a wood substitute, adding prints based on exaggerated versions of grain and knots.
Aukhe Fleur Janssen has taken woodgrain patterns and colour samples and transformed them into brightly patterns that could be used in wrapping paper, while Elvis Wesley designed gridded pieces he based on medieval engraved objects.
Working alongside fashion brand Dries Van Noten, textile designer Henriette Tilanis turned sheet products into pliable fibres, and Sanne Schuurman split sheets into blocks, and transformed them into interlocking geometric patterns which expose the inner fibrous texture.
Dutch duo Vantot took a slightly different approach, embedding electronic paths into Finsa's wood products and experimenting with the possibilities of adding light.
Photographer Ronald Smits captured the manufacturer's materials through a multiplane camera – a device invented and used by Walt Disney for animation – which makes the sheets appear to be sitting behind rather than on top of one another.
The Envisions group sets out to open up better dialogue between designers, clients and manufacturers through their presentations. During last year's Milan design week, they presented a similar collection of materials, showcasing the possibilities of the research process rather than the end product.
The Envisions exhibition is on from 4 to 9 April during Milan design week, and takes place at the Palazzo Clerici. Other exhibitions on display during the fair include a showcase of meat alternatives and a collection of furniture made from the foundations of Paul Cocksedge's London studio.

See You Later Summer, IDS Vancouver 2017 Is Here
Summer is coming to an end this month and we’re not even mad about it. It just means IDS Vancouver 2017 is that much closer to being here – it’s happening this month from 9/28-10/1. This is the Pacific platform for all things design-related and this year, Design Milk is bringing The Exchange back to curate the Tokyo Exchange showcasing innovative works by Tokyo-based design studios we+ and Design For Industry with an installation space designed by FSOARK Architect Inc. Check out the designers and see their past works here.
Tokyo Exchange concept by FSOARK
Last year’s Dutch Exchange, curated by Design Milk with works from Ontwerpduo, Dirk van der Kooij, Steven Banken, and Vantot, with a space design by Burgers Architecture.
Curated by Burgers Architecture Inc and with support from the Consulate to the Netherlands and FRAME Magazine, a brand new program called The Mix is debuting for the first time ever with installations, talks, and events happening onsite and off. The program is named for the collaborations that will be showcased between three Netherlands-based designers (OS & OOS, Studio RENS and Sabine Marcelis) and three Vancouver-based creators (Brent Comber, Bobbie Burgers and Martha Sturdy).
Bobbie Burgers
Studio Rens
INTRO/LA will also be curating an exhibit of design installations by a group of international contemporary and modern designers including Decode from London, Massproductions from Stockholm, Modus from Somerset, Resident from Auckland, Very Good & Proper from London and more. Danish design brand HAY is having a pop-up shop in collaboration with Inform Interiors so you can purchase select pieces from their collection – it makes for the perfect souvenir ;). We’re also excited to hear from keynote speakers like Jaime Hayon, Matteo Cibic, Kate Arends and more. Camille Walala will also be speaking and transforming the Central Bar into Walaland. Last but hardly the least, exhibitors from all over the West Coast and Canada are coming to showcase their latest collections – you can check out the entire list here.
On Friday, the Miele Professional Trade Day opens to all designers, architects, engineers, developers, property managers and retailers connected to the trade design. If you’re not trade, it doesn’t mean you’re missing out on the fun! We’ll see you at the opening night party and at the show on Saturday and Sunday; tickets are available for purchase here.
PS: If you’re arriving early or staying longer, check out our modern travel guide to Vancouver here!
