Nayade CR
A LUMINAIRE CONVERTED INTO A JEWELL OF LIGHT & WATER
The result of challenging contemporary design led to the birth of the first generation of disruptive luminaires that incorporate the essence of water in a form never before seen. Nayade CR is the first exclusive luminaire that is inspired by the patterns and mechanisms of nature. Showing fluid movements that poetically turn light and its shadows into a “visible idea”. It focuses exclusively on highlighting the transcendence of water through the beauty of its luminous projections. Offering us a new sense of enlightenment by accentuating the movement of water through light.
This luminaire is not only a piece of design that creates something extremely beautiful. It tries to go beyond aesthetics by showing us that it has the capacity to propose to us a dialogue that is visibly shaped. With an unmistakable personality and extraordinary qualities, Nayade CR tells its own story through its values and the union of two elements vital to the human being.
ORIGIN OF THE NAME
According to Greek mythology, the Naiads were freshwater nymphs. His myths tell us of beautiful young men who used to love mortals with their grace and beauty. The essence of a Naiad was linked to its body of water, so that if it dried up, it would die. And the Greek Word Naiads means “flow” and “running water”. Those were the decisive reasons why we chose to give our luminaire this name, creating a link between those mythological beings and Nayade CR.
LIGHT & WATER
The delicate movement of the water conceals its incomparable strength and allows Nayade CR to be reborn every time the light passes through its crystal body.In it, the complexity of light and water come to life within it and show us its true purpose: to be a reminder of the transcendence of water. The water inside Náyade CR also fulfills another important function. Being able to observe water in motion allows the brain to relax and give way to creative thoughts. Science explains that observing water at a biological level triggers the release of neurochemicals that increase blood flow in the brain and heart, which translates into reduced stress and anxiety, increased happiness, etc. Nayade CR, more than a luminaire, is a jewel that captures the value of water and releases it with the help of light.
BEAUTY
Around Nayade CR you can get to experience all the beauty, energy and shape of the water wrapped in the reflection and refraction of light.Creating a unique connection between its elements, the environment and the viewer. It is inspired by nature and recreates patterns so unique, that they only originate naturally behind a cascade that is illuminated by the sun. Evoking unspeakable emotions and experiences that subtly involve and interact with the user.
SOUND
Inside you can hear the gentle whisper of the water produced by its fall through its crystalline shell, imitating the sound that occurs when water moves through streams or dances in fountains in squares. This unique feature makes the Nayade CR luminaire able to offer us sound experiences that can lead us to a conscious meditative state. It has been proven that this sound can alter the wave patterns of the brain and causes a meditative state. In other words, the soft sound that Nayade CR emits can help reduce depression and lower stress and anxiety levels, as well as promote better mental clarity and sleep patterns.
