Fragment 08 pendant light by Sing Chan Dimensions: D 35.5 x H 70.5 cmMaterials: Stainless steel, glass.All our lamps can be wired according to each country. If sold to the USA it will be wired for the USA for instance.The past and the future are never disconnected. In this multifarious world, things are full of connections. Maybe we have to be reckless, maybe we can turn a blind eye, maybe we can be voracious, and maybe we can be casual, the time is.It has been two years since the last lamp creation, and this presentation will continue the past, complementing the Fragment series and expressing some ideas that have not been realized. The new collection was inspired by I.M. Pei's Louvre Pyramid, which was heavily criticized by Parisian society for being too avant-garde and out of place in the Classic Louvre. It seems to be the same as Fragment series, seeking a balance point between the avant-garde and the classical. The glass is attached to the metal to wrap the light, and the light travels through the tight structure, sometimes hitting the wall, sometimes being free, extending infinitely in the limited space.Although inspired by the Louvre Pyramid, but different in light efficiency. In the initial test, only the four sides of the glass were tested without fixed light effect. Staggered light was born to form a unique cross light effect, and further derived a new way of refraction. Physics is such simple, unpredictable and beautiful.Sing Chan ( Chinese: ???/Xingyu Chen) , the founder of SINGCHAN DESIGN, was born in 1990, and graduated from the Department of Industrial Design in Guangzhou University in 2013. He served as the Design Director for Bentu Design in 2016.Founded his own design studio in 2020, Sing specializes in discovering new revelations from different civilizations and eras, reconstructing them through design methods, and shaping new objects that link the past and the present.Panyu, Guangzhou, China, where Sing grew up, is a small town with a rich history along the Pearl River. In the early years, thanks to the developed waterway transportation, the port of the town has a very close relationship with Hong Kong, the imported cultures, utensils, and values meet and fuse here.It was not until he had been in the design industry for more than ten years that he realized that his understanding of native culture was shallow. He is confused about this, and experience tells him that the truly valuable objects are not groundless and pieced together, but based on historical inspection and adaptation of the times. Sing hopes that his design can be like a story that is worth telling in a lyric way, affecting the present across time..
