About the designer:

The designer behind Daniel Loves Objects is an industrial designer who resides in Singapore . He enjoys conceptualization for concepts that fuses a poetic touch in it. He gets inspired by the things around him such as the objects in the environment, animals and greens, even to the extreme of political affairs that are happening globally. On his approached towards ideation of a concept, he tries to inject some form of interactive factor into it to allow the user to have a form of relativity when he interacts with the product, a kind of reminiscence that will spark joy and relationship when engaged. He is always ready to be inspired and aspired by the objects that sit around him, believing that design could transform an individual, forming a finesse between human, object and technology.



CONCEPTUALIZING

Strength lies in the conceptualizing of feasible ideas and creative thinking.Have a flair in conceptualizing in areas of product design & image branding. Believes in creating an unique brand and identity for every individual product. Commercialization is indeed important for every product, but presenting it away from the norm, having the key to attract and preserving its shelf life is the trait of every good designer that is always ready to create a vision and package for every new product, resulting in a complete new approach to a certain mundane individual.

PRODUCT STYLING

Aesthetics are certainly a great turn on for every individual product that went through a considerable time of dressing it up in its finest details. Never underestimate the beauty of every product, how much it can attract and how much it can influence. Beauty plays a part in the value of a product. Have great interest in styling and the ability to bring up the product to its right form and colour. Much of it lies in the eyes, having the flair to discern a product in its finest proportion, detailing layout and appropriate colour application.

COLOR APPLICATION

Nonetheless, the right colour combination places the product in the limelight. When a suitable colour comes into place with the other, the product soon dances in the eyes of the audience, brings the crowd in fascination for a while and leaves the hall, embedding a strong striking image in the minds of many.

ILLUSTRATION

Strong interest in illustration of graphics/visual. A good illustration to a concept/product brings the right story to be told across to the many who view it. A picture is worth a 1000 words but a good illustration is worth the value that has already been accepted into the viewer when he comes into contact with the artwork. A good illustration is not only a tastefully done up eye candy but something that works on the perception of the user towards the product which will eventually contribute to the huge sales volume of it.

***EXTRA***

LOVE = DESIGN
***************
Design is a theme of beautiful things in a realm, whereas the universe has its own beautiful things yet in another realm. It's the pattern of transformation that took its flight from all things old. The feeding of information into our mind through our growing up years so we may be able to interpret between the bad and the good. The revolution from the old to the new. The contribution of masses to our environment. At times, the accidental contribution of some things bad that give us a chance to evolve into something good during the process. It may be a passion sown into our life through our environment while growing up or an accidental gift that has already been sown even before us. It's the small little details in our life that contributes to greater details.
It is the love of our passion, an expression of the individual. Design may be huge, it may be small, but we understand that it's the proportion and distribution that gives balance to our surrounding. Some have remained in the background, failed to be spotted, some have risen up through some significant contribution of his, while some have succeeded through many stages of trying despite many stages of failing. Let us all also be the Thomas Edison of this era, never stopping, never compromising and the Abraham Lincoln that has never admitted defeat to all. Therefore, we may be able to open up a new chapter into our life. It may be an approach of inputting something old into the new, or the new into the old, but an output of something new will be birth. It may be an experience from extracting elements from else source, but let us not discount that because all things good produce good. Design is a multitude of things bad and good, so that a comparison can be made between the both, making observation between items so that we'll know what is good. We love the things that are around, but we do seek for new ones, because taste fades over time and design replenish that, allowing more things to evolve through the period of time. The appearance wear but the substance stays, so let us appreciate them so that they might stay.

WITH LOVE,
DANIEL LOVES OBJECTS!


INTERVIEW ROUND
******************

Q1. How everyday is an inspiration and aspiration to you?
Well, to be frank, I quoted this sentence on my site just because it rhymes. But in reality it's true because nothing is perfect around us everyday which eventually lead to inventors to create and discover new things. As a designer, we do face the same problem likewise so I'm personally inspired to make life better and more interesting for people who come in contact with the products and it has be an everyday thing because this attitude will drive us to pursue our concepts which may bear fruits in the end, so that makes it an aspiration to be.

Q2. How did the idea behind 'Stars Tell Time' hit you?

Oh! Did the Stars hit me?! No, there are just hanging LEDs that are mounted on thin strips of copper wire that run down from the top housing itself. They stay still so they are definitely not shooting stars. The idea hit me during one night when I was lying on bed staring at the night stars up in the sky through those windows of mine. Still remember those days when we were just kids and we loved counting the twinkle twinkle little stars in the sky. We will count them as the time passed by. And it suddenly hit me on bed and I was thinking why not bring the idea down into a more tangible experience, somewhere near so you can count the stars to sleep. Thereafter, the ideation of this product came forth and not only does it provide a visual experience but something subtle which allows time to be told while reading the "stars". The finesse of technology and playfulness.

Q3. What is innovation to you - design, technology or the creative processes itself?
An act of innovation is the result of introducing something new and useful. Some may find it friendly and some find it unfriendly. But in the act of introducing something new, the process will embody a mixture of design and technology in it to evolve the product out in the end. So I would say innovation is the creative processes of distributing the ratio of design and technology in a needed product to make it successful.
