liki liki design | tecnologia a LED e diffusore di profumo "patanjali 1"

Il benessere cui aspiriamo è un benessere globale, capace di coinvolgere corpo e mente, un benessere “etereo” cercato nella sensorialità per dirigere con la mente la giusta distensione del corpo. Il benessere può passare attraverso il corpo per mezzo di una stimolazione “concreta” dei sensi: luce, colori, odori, suoni, tattilità, ergonomia, agisce sul lato “sensibile” e trasmette equilibrio alla psiche.

Possiamo decidere quali corde toccare a seconda della sinfonia che vogliamo ottenere, sapendo che alcune sensazioni pervadono direttamente lo spirito, ad esempio gli odori, mentre altre passano attraverso la corporeità, massaggi ma anche cromoterapia; è l'azione sul corpo a conquistare la mente. Ancora una volta e la luce che ci da questa possibilità.

Stimolare un senso significa essere a conoscenza delle sue specificità fruitive, delle sue sfere emozionali e cognitive: solo così si possono generare confluenze da un senso all'altro per raggiungere sensazioni sperimentali. Privilegiare un senso e la sua capacità di giocare con tutti gli altri potrebbe essere la via giusta verso una nuova esperienza emozionale.

Ogni progetto relativo al benessere nasce quindi dal desiderio sempre più forte di sperimentare nuove qualità della percezione ambientandole in un luogo di wellness—quale luogo che, per eccellenza, e dedicato al benessere psicofisico. Il nuovo concetto di wellness propone una sorta di destrutturazione della percezione sensoriale proponendo differenti esperienze dedicate ognuna ad un particolare senso e sempre in sinergia con la luce. La luce può essere rossa, come rosa, arancione o verde ma anche blu. Questi colori possono variare con programmazioni diverse e ritmi diversi.

Protagonista di ogni esperienza sensoriale e sempre la luce con le sue variazioni di cui vengono offerti nuovi modelli d'uso: ricerca di luce profumata come nel nostro prodotto «patanjali»™ , luce legata ad una temperatura personalizzabile, di un colore particolare in cui immergersi. Con interazioni tra luce e superfici, luce e acqua, o anche tra luce e suono,e possibile immaginare nuovi scenari in cui soffermarsi, sentire e percepire intensamente. In chiaro, ritrovarsi.

Colour rendering at its best | Aliki Polydor | liki liki design

Experience sustains that no artificial light reveals the authenticity in colours like that of LED lighting at the appropriate colour temperature (for some it may be 6500°K). There is nothing like "daylight white" or "natural white"  to bring out that pure colour and pigment while referring to the light source's CRI.
(Color Rendering Index is a scale from 0 to 100 percent indicating how accurate a "given" light source is at rendering color when compared to a "reference" light source. ... Light sources with a CRI of 85 to 90 are considered good at color rendering.)
In most contexts and living spaces, people are naturally drawn to appreciating changing stimuli and moods. Adequate and dynamic “light” can be enjoyed in the same way as when ones listens to a pleasant music track, or appreciates a meal. It becomes a synaesthetic experience.
This behavior stems from using light as an “active” ingredient in feeding the individual's sensations and needs. Variation is what gives us more satisfaction.When approaching the hours of sunset, the intensity of emotions and their density reach a pre-climax.  By nightfall, with the proper LED lighting, colours stricto senso or colours of emotions, reach their epitome in providing this ultimate sense of synaesthesia without ever neglecting quality.

"napo" LED table lamp designed by Aliki Polydor 2007- atcasa

Do we always have to look back in time or let somebody else work out for us what's in, what's trendy, what's been presented at the Salone del Mobile or at Euroluce?
Do we always have to check who has got this or that to decide if we shall get the same? Is it part of the Vitra collection and sold in series? Will it be considered vintage in a couple of decades? Does it match our sofa?

Or

Can we simply be of today and use the latest LED technology, not just old fashioned bulbs but printed circuit boards - indeed real electronics! Time has come for us to settle in the present and accept it.

The «napo»™ table lamp, designed by Aliki Polydor, fulfills this position thoroughly - a little “avant-guarde” perhaps - undoubtedly revealing a highly elegant and charismatic design.

We don't always have to look up to “the Jones's”, do we?

"daffodil" Led table lamp design Aliki Polydor

Prematurely speaking, winter is dragging on and it is going to last for a while!
Can we brighten up our days with vibrating light and colour?

Bring out some of that colour temperature around 6500 degrees Kelvin and generate the authentic colours of a daffodil from the Far East. But then why not try our fresh «daffodil»™ that has just sprung out of liki liki's studio? It has grown out on a blue lapis lazuli methacrylate carpet positioned on a massive aluminum plate! Take a close look at it and place it on any table top to cheer up the festive season and your Christmas receptions.


Flexible stems in beautiful chromated-aluminum that allow the individual 100 lumen LED lights to move within a 30 degree optical range to accent any particular surrounding element. It is a somewhat sculpture-like object with its own personality and may stand for itself.

Try it. You will remember Wordsworth.

"d-light" is a pure shape

Aesthetically “d-light”™ is pure shape. The product has minimal presence and leaves it to light itself to steal the show. The form is simple and austere, making for a sober appliance that does not monopolize attention, but provides light, atmosphere and comfort. It is to the same sober design based on right angles and lines that the “d-light” owes its universal and timeless character. We have resolutely chosen to enter into a dialogue with architecture.

The result? A thin, minimalist lamp that thrives where you put it.

A lot has been written about LEDs. If you have been exposed to white LEDs, you probably discover that they emit a lot of light of a pleasing color. We have worked to make the light spread smoothly and evenly with the appropriate optics.
Heat is the great enemy of LEDs. This is ironic, since light bulbs work by heating a filament to such a high temperature that it glows. We've taken great care to use high quality LEDs and to properly design a compact and beautiful lamp to ensure its long life by efficiently dispersing the generated heat.

There is a strong tendency in today's “creativity” to solely rely on “basic” emotional impact to capture the attention of the public, through strong solicitation to surprise and bewilder. We have instead ventured into serenity! How about that?

With “d-light”™ we have pointed both, towards abstraction and measure, towards balance and simplification of all iconic messages, presenting meditative silence as opposed to excessive noise.

"at casa" con la "kissimu 3" 2007 lampada da tavolo LED design Aliki Polydor

Perché la lampada da tavolo «kissimu 3»™ si distingue?



Perché non ha che fare con la lampada tradizionale, prevedibile; siamo piuttosto nella “Haute Couture” come spesso detto, si tratta di una lampada che ha un anima sofisticata.
Un misto perfetto di eleganza e tecnologia concentrato nella sua struttura scultorea.

Non dimentichiamo che la luce del futuro presente nella sua eterea bellezza biancha nasconde un elettronica di ultima generazione nell' applicazione dei LED.



A “touch of class” alla Vivienne Westwood. Undoubtedly!

liki liki LED lighting design | "biscot"™2007 | un illuminazione per deambulazione

“Biscot™’ultima creazione di Aliki Polydor dello studio della liki liki design che promuove l'illuminazione a LED. Questa lampada insiste sempre nell’uso della tecnologia di illuminazione LED, montata su un piccolo stelo flessibile incorniciato in una sorta di “corolla” di plexiglas blu lapis lazzuli.

In questa divertente installazione da applicare a parete, una serie di moduli verticali di “biscot” ci fa pensare ad una tastiera di pianoforte. Ognuna delle lampade che compongono la “collettività” di “biscot” è orientabile, e perciò ne risulta una diffusione della luce variata, variabile e pluridirezionale. Si tratta insomma di una “applique” di taglio orizzontale ma da applicare in verticale, cromaticamente sobria–tra il blu notte, l’alluminio smerigliato e il violetto–adatta ad esempio ad illuminare un corridoio, magari se ripetuta in serie dovrebbe creare, mercè i molteplici orientamenti possibili dei suoi “steli luminosi alla Van Gogh”, una illuminazione quanto mai particolare e originale.
Data la sua mole e la sua peculiare conformazione mi parrebbe adatta ad ambienti di rappresentanza, quali il corridoio di un albergo di charme o un luogo di passaggio. Ma potrebbe adattarsi anche ad un ambiente più raccolto quale una parete domestica, una camera da letto. La sua caratteristica di pluralità luminosa permetterebbe anche una diffusione non solo “consapevole” della luce, ma una sua continua “manipolazione”, creando un luogo di vita, di soggiorno o di lavoro luminosamente cangiante.

liki liki design | "biscot"™| small is in

"small is beautiful" is in. Times are changing, turmoil is the next wave. 
  

Avant-garde or not, trend setters may not agree, but we are in times of selective and timeless investments. No more gaudy, overbearing glitter swarovsky-style! Luxury will not necessarily equate show-off and gratuitously baroque effects.

Check out on our "biscot" wall -lamp and see for yourself. Like caviar, it is small and rare, but so precious...

liki liki LED luminaire | "biscot"| a wall applique for contract

What would you say if a little gem-like led lamp made us think of a french "petit four"? Something which would make us reminisce of a sweet bluberry fancy? You know that there is no such thing as tempting to the eyes and to the palate as an authentic french little pastry. Well, there you are!


The deliciously delicate and yet sturdy "biscot" has all the qualities of led-lit accent lighting and the visual dynamics of a little precious amethyst gem. You can use it in all contexts whether in a home, bedroom or study to emphasise artwork and small sculptures.  Ideal for "contract" and "hospitality".
In these times of eco-conscious upheavals, in the positive sense, "no bulbs to change for a period of 15 years" is a treat!

Orders are trickling in. So hurry up and get a glimpse of it.

Nessun cambio di lampadina e non solo con la "kissimu 3" o "napo" !

No e nel l'ordine della magia : e il miracolo del l'illuminazione a LED.

Non e il caso solo di queste due lampade da tavolo a LED, la "kissimu 3" e "napo", ma vale anche per tutte le lampade a LED : non richiedono nessun "cambiamento di lampadine". E la fine della sostituzione delle lampadine che bruciano. Non c'è più bisogno di quest’ impegno, quasi rituale, sia per lampadine alogene o a incandescenza, sia per quelli a basso consumo a base di CFL.

L'illuminazione a LED e un regalo al consumatore!

I LED che utilizziamo nelle nostre illuminazioni hanno una durata media di vita tra 80.000 e 100.000 ore, che corrispondono a 15 o 20 anni, secondo il tempo che rimangono accesi ogni giorno.

Lo potete immaginare?


Oltre tutto, questi LED di alta potenza hanno un alto rendimento luminoso per un consumo bassissimo: mentre consumano 7.5W, producono una luce bella e costante, sopratutto economica.

Il migliore che ci sia nel l'illuminazione eco-friendly.

E non e tutto: date un occhiata al nostro "triple-d-light" che troverete anche sul portale design AT Casa del Corriere della Sera.

liki liki design | 2008 Abitare il Tempo della luce wellness

Oggi è necessario ad ogni momento riscoprire il mondo delle sensazioni : è necessario definire nuovi fonti di equilibrio per riuscire a vivere il presente con pienezza ed entusiasmo. Nell'ambito urbano abbiamo perso la capacità di sorridere guardando un fiore, di sognare osservando un tramonto. C'è troppo di tutto.
Questo caos urbano ha annullato la magia del pieno godimento di attimi vissuti solo ed esclusivamente per noi, per rilassare il nostro corpo e la nostra mente, per ascoltarci e ritrovarci.

C’è un bisogno fondamentale di ambiti spaziali esclusivi che possano infondere in ognuno tranquillità e armonia. Ambienti che riescano a riconciliare il nostro corpo con la nostra mente.

Parliamo di luoghi depositari di una parte della nostra vita sotto forma di esperienza visiva, olfattiva, tattile, uditiva. Luoghi dove, ad esempio, la luce congiungerebbe il senso visivo con l'olfatto, e infine ci porterebbe a desiderare di toccare, giocare, soddisfare il senso tattile, dando via al compimento di tanti godimenti semplici.

Questo non e un sogno? In fatti ci siamo già.

Il "patanjali"© realizza questo sogno che diventa realtà con una luce pulita, nella sua capacità di attivare con tutti gli altri sensi e creare un’atmosfera contemplativa. Una luce magica e meditativa, che ci porta ad apprezzare profumi scelti da noi stessi, non imposti da altri e idonei per ogni occasione, come ad esempio:

• Un’essenza di garofano per sentirsi trascinato in un' esperienza quasi nomadica, cavalcando con Gengis Khan;
• Un’essenza di mimosa per portare con se' il vento di mare, ricordarsi del cielo della Riviera.
• Un'essenza di narciso o di cedro per vivere un stato di puro relax.

be LED... by expertise | since 2006

Summer fragrances are back to last for some time, at least until the beginning of the winter season.

Why not check out on the "patanjali" which offers you that possibility.
Even though we have already introduced our "patanjali" table/floor lamp within the context of the home and public spaces, we are getting more and more requests about its implementation in luxury wellness centers and spas.

The "patanjali" with its ergonomical design and avant-garde conception can remain switched on for 24 hours a day without overheating. The three containers for the essential oils warm up to the right temperature of 40 degrees ideal for the diffusion of the same or different perfumes! Not to mention its extremely minimal power consumption which is characteristic of high technology LED lighting. Imagine no risk of overheating, watching, forgetting...

Its magenta colour further emphasises its value as an equally aesthetic object of design. Enjoy its refinement! For the senses are all there! For any luxury spa!

En attendant Abitare il Tempo september 2008

Summer is here and the heat can get unbearable! Whether you are in your house or shop, better switch off your halogen lamps!

LEDsmiths are IN. With the magic touch of a clean light, get the “cool” back into your lighting.

be LED ... by expertise

be LED ... by precision

be LED ... by your senses

Trust our experience for any advice on this subject.

Have a nice summer. A time for raspberries and lampone.

corriere atcasa | & LED "kissimu 3" or "napo"| liki liki design

No more bulbs to change with "kissimu 3" or "napo"  designed by Aliki Polydor.

It is not magic : it is LED lighting.
Not only these two lamps but all our LED lighting does NOT require any "bulb changing". Can you believe it?

Do bear in mind that LED lighting does not impose the uneconomical chore which consists in regularly changing the burnt out light bulbs of your precious lamps!
Whether for halogen, incandescent or CFL bulbs, consumers have traditionally been conditioned into replacing them now and then over the years, but today, more so, this routine will progressively become obsolete.
LED-lighting is a gift to the consumer : no more of that hectic chore!

The high-power LEDs we use have 50.000-100.000 hours of lifespan, so your lamps will live for up to 15-20 years, depending on how long you have them switched on daily.
Can you imagine a better way of saving energy and the environment?

Furthermore, these high-power LEDs have a very low electrical consumption: while consuming merely 7.5W, they provide a safe and affordable "ambiance" light.
The ultimate in eco-friendly lighting.

And we are not finished : check out on the "triple d-light" also on atcasa.corriere.it catalogue.

liki liki LED lighting design | daylight and its pairing with" triple d-light"

We can show you distinctly the difference since 2006.

We only work with LED lighting and are ready to reveal its intricacies!

Guess which one is the true colour of these armchairs and vote below.

liki liki lighting design | "triple d-light": a concentrated lighting pleasure

The "triple d-light" means exactly what its name implies: concentrated lighting pleasure.

For an added touch of elegance, use “triple d-light” for "accent lighting" and you soon realize how much the special features in a room, such as artwork, architectural details and furnishings have gained in significance. This type of light is commonly seen in art galleries and museums to give a life like quality to the display. The “triple d-light” lamp’s unique structure helps you position the light beams freely in space, creating a bright shaft of light that sets the encountered objects apart from their surroundings and brings out their “clandestine” colours for all to enjoy. The beam precision and the unidirectional nature of the generated white light are perfectly adapted at creating special moods and ambiences around your most valued objects.

Retailers can also use "triple d-light" lighting in display windows to illuminate merchandise, attract attention, and even send a message about the quality of their store. For the prospective customer, it creates visual interest and makes the merchandise stand out from the background.

As with all our production we have taken the eco-friendly and inclusive approach needed for today’s light sources. Incorporating the most advanced LED technology available “triple d-light” is designed for sustainability, minimal light pollution and high energy efficiency, effectively setting new standards. Its high-power LEDs have a very low electrical consumption, consuming merely 7.5W, providing a safe and affordable light over an operational lifespan of 50,000 hours, which correspond to 15-20 years when used daily.

The “triple d-light” visual appeal and aesthetic elegance derive from its contrasting straight lines. The soft finishes of the metal components, the deep orange transparency and the satinated surfaces all contribute to a balanced mix of value, performance and style.

The positive energy released by this beautiful luminaire combines precise detail enhancing performance with soft emotional results. The lamp's modern and rigorous structure, the warm hallo and the precise light beams find their natural place in any modern or trendy space, where it enriches the “charme”, creates “drama” and softens the atmosphere. It is nevertheless meant for "accent lighting".

liki liki |"kissimu 3"™table lamp

"kissimu 3"™

Solid state Lighting LED technology combined with pure structure, together with a tinge of fantasy, still positions "kissimu 3" in the avant-garde of high power LED designer lamps. In fact its conception and design dates back to 2007 when incorporating high-power LED solutions within a designer lamp was barely in its early infancy.

“ kissimu 3" is a functional and eco-sustainable luminaire. Its photometrics define it as such; it provides around 700 lumen and has been studied to offer “natural daylight” at 6500 degree Kelvin with the adequate intensity for “ambiance” lighting.

“kissimu 3” and its power LEDs have a estimated lifetime  of 70.000 hours and as any quality Solid-State Lighting does not require maintenance.

"kissimu 3" has a soft touch on/off electronic device at its base which allows only one, or both parts of the luminaire to be switched on.

 The "kissimu 3" table lamp goes beyond the pre-conceived idea of a table lamp. Its fluid design gives a sense of “taking off” and a feeling of lightness. It is true ambiance lighting abiding by a sustainable feng shui.

"...I would like someone to design some truly innovative lights, because I believe that designing beautiful, functional and, above all, new lighting is the hardest thing to do."
This is what Vivienne Westwood, the "grande dame"de la haute couture, once said  after a recent exhibition in Milan.Surely the "kissimu 3"table lamp would  meet this great fashion icon's whims. Innovative LED technology, pure structure and a dash of extravaganza, "kissimu 3"™ is avant-garde without transgression. "kissimu 3" goes beyond the intrinsic "stability" associated with table lamps. The lamp's fluid and ironic design evokes more a "taking off".

Exclusive but not elitist, "kissimu 3" is one of liki liki's limited edition LED luminaires.
