Roca’s Waterdrop Exhibit Makes A Splash
What makes water so calming? Normally you’d have to trek to the Caribbean to study its best qualities, like a deep blue color and hypnotic ripple effect. But now a Spanish designer has recreated the soothing spectacle of an ocean'without using any actual water'for an exhibit called Waterdrop.
Héctor Serrano Studio created the installation in collaboration with Javier Esteban by using a framework of glowing blue metal rods and an underlying rolling mechanism to mimic the movement produced by a single drop of water. The work was commissioned by innovative bathroom designers Roca, who recently displayed it in a dark room at the 100% Design London event. Watch a trippy video of the exhibit below…
