"The mathematical sciences particularly exhibit order, symmetry and limitation, and these are the greatest forms of beautiful." - Aristotle
a tribute to radiolarians
Heliodiscus is a modular light sculpture inspired by the delicate glass skeletons of Radiolarians — microscopic, ocean-dwelling organisms. Their natural geometries, admired for centuries by scientists and artists like Ernst Haeckel, are now reimagined through modern design and lighting.
nature-inspired design meets modern technology
Combining principles nature-inspired design, biophilic design, and 3D printing, Heliodiscus transforms organic complexity into a functional art piece. Its translucent forms scatter light in ever-changing patterns, creating a calming, otherworldly atmosphere on wall, ceiling, or both.
lightweight, modular and versatile
Designed to adapt to any space, Heliodiscus modules can be arranged in custom compositions. Whether as a centerpiece or subtle accent, it enhances interiors with a sense of fluidity and natural wonder.
