Blooming Skyline Console

The blooming skyline console was inspired by the ancestral relationship between growing cities and star constellations.
Ancient peoples observed the night sky to point out stars and use them for orientation. They wanted to be closer to these stars but were afraid of the enormous space in between and therefore built their city walls and positioned their houses in relationship to the star constellations above them. Thus reflecting star constellations on earth. This furniture piece frame and evidence city structures. it’s reverted towards the ground because it’s imaginary cities built following star constellation. Historical changes in architecture are evoked through the use of wood and transparent Plexiglas for the “houses”.
The images of exotic flowers are inserted into wooden boxes. Stars and flowers are also emblematic of the relationship between the antique and the contemporary. Conquests and travels enabled humanity to discover new star constellations and vegetation, however in ancient alchemic beliefs flowers are also related to stars. For example the flowers engraved in stones in Italian architecture. each flower is symbolic of a star.
