HER GRAVITY
Floating away in space, her tabletops can move away from their base (by hand) and turn 360 degrees, independently. Challenging earth's gravity.
HER DIMENSIONS:
her body:
114 x 114 x 42 CM
45 x 45 x 17 IN
her tabletops:
Ø 75,5 CM
Ø 30 IN
max / turned open:
2.66 M / 105 IN
HER BODY
Her body is made of handwelded steel and lightweight aluminium appearing in four color variations; DUST SETTLING, DARK GLIMMER, LUNAR CYCLE and GRAVE MAGIC. It takes a week to weld her body, she is well made. Find out more about how she's made on: selene ~ the process (coming soon).
HER LIGHT
There are different moonlight colors available carefully selected for the the four variations. Every variation has it's own moon tone; ranging from white to warm white, to yellow to warm yellow. Custom requests are welcome through email: info@neeltjedesignstudio.com

HER ORIGIN
Selene is the first object deriving from a collaboration between designer Neeltje Kromdijk and astronomer Lucas Ellerbroek.
HER ECLIPSE
Her upper tabletop can be eclipsed over her lower one, the moon, to set a moon phase. This counter circle, representing the shadow part of the moon, is made from glass, matt in appearance.

HER MOON
Her moon tabletop is an engraved surface and is light conductive. During the day she shows her skin delicately, especially in the shade. Like outside, when you know she's there but only see her slightly. During the evening her light can be switched on. The moon has an authentic produced glass top that shows as raindrops on water.
HER SHAPE
Her body shape is based on a Circle and a Square connected by the Triangle. In Zen conceptual understanding, the entire Universe can be reduced to these three shapes: the square, circle and triangle. In Selene there is a relationship between the not-knowing square and the enlightened circle - but it is the triangle formed by the person sitting next to her that connects these two shapes.
HER DISTANCE
Her moonlight is dimmable with your mobile app
and can be switched on and off from a distance.
