WW CHANDELIER - RYTHPW

In a captivating fusion of artistry and design, VLVLK-FRĒODŌM introduces a groundbreaking chandelier concept envisioned by the talented artist and designer, Riaan Oosthuizen. This avant-garde creation unfolds as handmade porcelain shards burst forth in a symphony of vibrant colors, creating an unmissable focal point that seamlessly marries visual allure with unparalleled functionality. Within this visionary undertaking, VLVLK encourages a rich exploration of diverse design styles, techniques, and ceramic applications, igniting Riaan Oosthuizen’s imagination to traverse the limitless possibilities inherent in ceramics.

The design objectives form a kaleidoscopic journey, starting with the celebration of ceramics’ beauty and versatility. Riaan Oosthuizen is tasked with crafting a visually striking chandelier that serves as a testament to the magnificent spectrum of finishes, textures, colors, and shapes found within the realm of ceramics. This masterpiece is not just about aesthetics; functionality takes center stage. The chandelier must seamlessly integrate into its designated space, ensuring practicality in design for effortless installation and maintenance while delivering an exceptional level of functionality.

Material innovation unfolds as a key theme, inviting Riaan Oosthuizen to explore inventive ways of incorporating ceramics. Whether through the traditional artistry of hand molding, the precision of slip casting, or the cutting-edge realm of ceramic 3D printing, the possibilities are boundless. Embracing ceramic glazes, patterns, and surface treatments becomes the brushstroke to elevate the overall design, creating a chandelier concept that is not only visually captivating but also a testament to the ingenuity of ceramic artistry.

Size and scale are tailored to provide flexibility in installation, offering options for different sizes to seamlessly fit into diverse environments. The deliverables encompass an artistic odyssey, starting with initial concept sketches that weave a tapestry of diverse design ideas for the chandelier. A comprehensive design proposal is expected to feature the chosen concept, meticulously detailing dimensions, ceramic types, 3rd party components, finishes, color schemes, and any unique artistic elements envisioned.

Visual renderings or 3D models are the portal through which the chandelier concept is unveiled, showcasing its beauty from various angles and in diverse lighting scenarios. Detailed technical specifications become the blueprint, covering electrical requirements, assembly instructions, and considerations for the manufacturing of ceramics and 3rd party components essential for the chandelier’s framework.

In a remarkable departure from convention, this visionary project operates without a predefined budget for the select ceramic materials and proposed manufacturing methods, aligning perfectly with the project’s boundless vision. Riaan Oosthuizen’s submission, an ideation accompanied by a brief explanation of the design approach and initial ideas for the chandelier concept, has been tendered.

The submission deadline, a fleeting moment tailored to the complexity of the product, underscores the urgency and dynamism of this artistic endeavor. VLVLK’s curation team stands poised to undertake a meticulous review of Riaan Oosthuizen’s submission, evaluating portfolio strength, creativity, and alignment with project objectives.
