It's a project, which grew out of master studies' workshop "Smart textile for public spaces".
A light insallation for a patient room of a hospice department of a long-term nursing clinic.
The light installation consists of 5 modules, the sides of which have led-light strips that are programmed to light and dim in a slow mode. This allows patients to relax, bring some emotional elevation and light to the room. The modules are decorated with a polyester fabric, which has a silk-screen printed volume pattern of trees and leaves.
