«Welcome to the Void» — a manifesto of emptiness and freedom! «The modern world is overloaded with information. Design is becoming an increasingly aggressive means of expression. Objects, forms, meanings argue, compete with each other, creating chaos, disharmonious environment, as a result — displacing a person in the struggle for his attention and destroying his inner world... Emptiness, clean space, freedom from borders, a state of complete presence — steel real values.» The concept of the stand replicate the phases of "purification of consciousness" to achieve "emptiness". First: a portal of luminous concrete symbolizes a material reality, preparing for future changes. Brutal material, freed from the inherent "gravity" - loses its materiality. The second: a white portal with soft furniture elements is a transitional stage where are good and "empty": here you can take any convenient position and plunge into the "emptiness". This space is still tangible and has visible boundaries. The third: the black space forming the infinity of "emptiness" is made of matte, glossy and mirror tension surfaces. The luminaires emphasize this illusiveness - lighting up at full power and then completely disappearing into space.
