In collaboration with the Berlin scent brand Aoiro, Yellow Nose Studio designed a sculpture evoking a moon shape to diffuse the brand's essential oils.
Inspired by Aoiro's poem, Yellow Nose Studio uses shapes and materials to explore the relationship between the moon and night.
“THE SKY RISES, CARRYING THE MOON INITIATES ITS MANY VARIATIONS. THEY LEAN ON EACH OTHER YET STAND ON THEIR OWN, EXISTINIG LIKE SCULPTURES.”
The Taiwanese duo Yellow Nose is through their work in search of the perfect balance between the organic and the inorganic, the logical and the emotional, artisanal know-how and industrial design. Kai and Ying make individual handmade pieces and work in a wide range of natural and industrial settings.
With their background in architecture, they aim to use raw and raw materials in unforeseen and unpredictable ways.
Yellow Nose Studio opened in 2017 and is based in Berlin, Germany.
