Lens Series Furniture is an innovative collection of contemporary furniture pieces that masterfully combines metal and acrylic materials to create a unique interplay of light and shadow. Designed by Eva Liu in 2021, this sophisticated furniture series draws inspiration from the optical properties of convex lenses, incorporating complementary colored acrylics and 304 fingerprint-resistant metal to achieve striking visual effects. The collection encompasses multiple pieces including an armchair, coffee table, side table, bench, chair, screen, floor lamp, table lamp, and vase, each crafted to explore the concept of imperceptible beauty in everyday life. The series employs a distinctive production technique where metal parts are hand-polished to achieve optimal curvature aesthetics while maintaining structural integrity, and PMMA materials undergo a gradient color spraying process. The innovative joinery system features beveled connections between metal and glass profiles, minimizing adhesive use while ensuring stability. The furniture pieces create dynamic shadowing effects through the thoughtful combination of frosted and transparent acrylic finishes, responding to incident light to produce subtle color gradients. This artistic yet functional collection, which earned the Bronze A' Design Award in the Furniture Design category, represents a significant achievement in balancing aesthetic sophistication with practical utility, offering flexible combination possibilities for modern living spaces while delivering an elevated artistic experience in home environments.
