An experiment with light modulation and space
The artist Olafur Eliasson calls the Starbrick an "experiment with light modulation and space". In a light experiment in collaboration with Zumtobel, different qualities and hues of LED light were tested. This led to the development of the star-shaped modules, based on a stackable principle, which eventually resulted in the Starbrick.
Specifications
The Starbrick consists of injection-moulded polycarbonate components with a matte black finish. The semi-transparent, yellow, reflective surfaces at its core are backlit by LEDs. The light from the outward-facing LED Boards is concentrated and evenly distributed via polycarbonate refractors
Modules
The Starbricks can be assembled into groups of any size and combination, developing in different directions.
Structures
The basic structure of the Starbrick is a cube on whose six surfaces additional cubes have been placed at a 45° angle. These additional cubes serve as connectors so that several Starbricks can be conjoined.
