Spiraal Fyllotaxis Lampen en Interieurobjecten

Visual language of nature

Spiral phyllotaxis is a recurring theme in the work of STUDIO BL - Bastiaan Luijk. Phyllotaxis is a scientific word used in botany to describe the arrangement of leaves around an axis or stem. Spiral phyllotaxis can be seen as a pattern in the heads of sunflowers, among other things. This pattern can be constructed with a mathematical formula, as proposed by Helmut Vogel in 'A better way to construct the sunflower head' in 1979. This formula describes the pattern in a flat plane (2D) and is used for the wall lamp design and ornaments. STUDIO BL has developed a method and algorithm making it possible to construct the spiral phyllotaxis pattern as a spatial structure for 3D designs. The studio creates these nature-inspired designs to share their fascination: to emphasize the beauty of nature, bringing it closer and appreciating it in new ways.

Collaboration projects: Coral Knob | NOVY SKOK | Heatfun Baguio

Coral Knob For the Anniversary of 30 years Mariëtte Wolbert Textiles, she created 100 exclusive kitchen sets with the Coral theme. Studio BL - Bastiaan Luijk was asked to design and make a coral knob exclusively for this special kitchen set. Inspired by this theme, Bastiaan developed a new concept for a Coral lamp, based on his spiral phyllotaxis algorithm. NOVY SKOK Decades of artisan wood craftsmanship combined with algorithmic design and digital manufacturing. Dutch designers Frida van der Poel and Bastiaan Luijk reinvented the SKOK stool, originally designed by Frida in 1994. The NOVÝ SKOK series explores new combinations of materials, colors and function. Heatfun Baguio Designer-maker Bastiaan Luijk and interior architect Karel Bodegom have embarked on a collaboration based on remarkable technology with special features. How can we make heat visible when the flame is extinguished? How do we show that the heat emitter is on? An all-black heat plate from the Heatfun Collection and a custom-made Baguio table lamp. A statement for Heat (and) Enthousiasts.
