By analyzing the qualities of reinforced glass, Fabian and Hans were inspired by the encapsulated mesh core that creates a reinforced structure. It gives any fragile or soft material more control and strength. This led to the use of silicone and LED-lights, both having similar fragile qualities, as starting point of this process. Combining these materials and principles together creates a “Reinforced light object I &II” which are able to adapt to the environment. It gives the user endless possibilities for the placement of the product. The flexibility of the material creates an uneven, visually flowing surface, which gets enhanced by the LED light source.
