Consetllation Collection Lookbook

Richard Clarkson Studio.


I have fond memories of walking the sandy shores of Waimarama Beach in New Zealand at night. Looking up and being able to trace the flow of the Milky Way, losing myself in the stars and, for a moment, moving beyond the human sense of time and scale. As a studio born of the clouds, we now set our sights to the stars and beyond, hoping to expand on the experience we’ve created thus far. With this collection, we seek to bring the wonders of the celestial into the home. We create objects, products and installations that are, minimal in style, honest in material, elegant in simplicity and sculptural to the core. Distorting the ever-blurring lines between art, scinece, tehcnlogy & design, we use processes and methodologies drawn from each discipline. We offer services in consultancy, product, experience design and seek to inspire astronomical wonder through exquisite, elemental objects. We are so proud to share this new collection with you - aptly named “Constellation Collection”.

CONSTELLATION



LIGHT SYSTEM A twilight LED lighting system available in each of the Zodiac configurations.

We all have been left awe-inspired by the stars at some point in our lives. We form patterns to predict the weather, find our way, tell stories and make sense of the sky. Throughout history, many cultures have interpreted the stars in their own way - often creating stories and legends about the clusters of suns, burning millions of miles away.

The Constellation Light System brings together each of the 12 zodiac constellations. Arranged in a finished brass that connects points of ambient light, this system recaptures what I felt looking up at the sky in Waimarama Beach. The end result is an alluring, elegant fixture, in a class of its own - the hero of the Constellation Collection.

PANEL A limited edition wall installation inspired by the stars themselves.

It was the night of July 20th, 1969 when commander, Neil Armstrong and lunar module pilot, Buzz Aldrin, landed the Apollo Lunar Module Eagle. 6 hours later, Neil Armstrong became the first person to set foot on the moon - what we now know to be “one small step for man, one small step for mankind”.

The Panel is an illuminated wall installation displaying an accurate map of the stars & constellations from New York’s perspective on that very night. Designed to bring the excitement of that groundbreaking moment into the home, this precise, captivating piece is able to transform any living space it is placed in.

SIDE TABLE Solid concrete base, elegant brass stem, and round glass table surface.

An elegant marriage of glass & brass meet with a firm concrete base an homage to wandering planetoids, adrift in an infinite cosmos. The idea for the Side Table was conceived after seeing how beautifully pools of water can reflect the shimmering stars above. Its rounded glass surface and clean polished edges create a floating mirror, aimed at the sky - a void that both reflects and absorbs.
