Encounters

Laurentius de Ruiter wants to distract you. He has created three objects to surprise or move you, or perhaps break your concentration for a moment. The objects possess different characteristics to enable unexpected encounters in different environments. The first object represents the encounter in its purest form. The grey sphere rolls its own course, without presenting a striking shape or colour. The second is a welcoming and playful presence, a bubble-blowing object to inspire curiosity. The final design takes a little more time to discover: a mysteriously revolving chandelier to make you stop and wonder.
