Studio Toer‘s passion is to create a world where objects and people are connected, where they seem to communicate and influence each others behavior. Toer is constantly looking at new possibilities for future products and installations. By creatively combining technology and materials, they explore and make our own world. Moving, reacting, playfull, and light weight are some off the keywords that identify our world.

Fiet
Fiet is an interactive light object that visualizes the emotional impact of movement. The object is built out of hundreds of cones which emphasize the motion of the surface. The points of the cones move closer to each other or expand when the skin is moving. All this happens by the influence of sounds surrounding the object. You will see the sculpture become stressed when there is a sudden noise, but when it ’s quiet and peaceful it will move in a comfortable manner. It ’s like a living organism that interacts with its environment.

Toer’s passion is to explore the boundaries of product and spatial design. The designs are a result of their fascination for simple movements and the emotional impact this can have. This in combination with subtle material use and a straightforward form language identifies the work of Toer.

Dome Stool

Toer designed a stool that gives the appearance of sitting on air, Dome.
The eighty curved steel rods that spring out of the wooden base create a polar array. This strong shape, used in famous architecture like the pantheon, makes it strong enough to sit on. The stool is crafted from beech wood and is together with the round shapes in strong contrast with the hard metal rods. Because of it’s transparent design the Dome stool has an honest appearance.

Shaped by Time Clock

“Shaped-by-time” is a clock that shapes itself by the passage of time. Because it’s looking for the most efficient way to move itself through the matter it will create an organic form by the slow repetitive movement of time.
Time is slightly visible when the clock starts running, after a few days it excavates itself out of the matter and time will appear. From then on it slowly starts creating it’s organic form in which it will find it’s ideal shape.
When you want to forget time, shake it a bit and it will start all over again with finding it’s way. Like time heals wounds, this clock litterly heals itself by time.

Spring LED Lamp

Toer developed a lamp that expresses the versatility and simplicity of LED technology: Spring. From under a violet felt shade, a 3W LED spot shines its light. By individually moving the two steel rods up and down the light can be directed up and down and from left to right.
