Tealight and Collection Design Concept

Design Brief: Develop a new range of products to be centred on a tealight holder and contain a minimum of 3 products to be released in 2019.

Wooden weave is a collection inspired by the historical period of Art Nouveau. The collection is focused around ergonomics of wood and the way natural vines intertwine themselves, a prominent feature in many art Nouveau designs.

At the center of the collection is a dome shaped tea light holder, light escapes through the ergonomic openings between the intertwined branches of the walls casting unique shadow. It also has a spinning flower on top of the dome, powered by uprising heat currents, transferred mechanically through a small fan housed in the top of the dome. Also part of the collection is a fruit bowl, a solid scaled version of the tealight dome flipped upside down, carrying the woven wood and ergonomic characteristics. The third item in the collection is a cork screw bottle stop. The item reflects the flower on top of the tea light holder with a wooden weave bottle stop cover extending down that will cover the opening of a wine bottle, in the centre of the stopper is a cork screw.
