LIGHT ♥ FRANKFURT ist eine Anspielung auf den unbeschwerten Liebesbeweis im klassischen I♥NY Logo. Ein stilisiertes Herz wird aus sich kreuzenden blutroten Laserstrahlen kreiert, Leidenschaft, Liebe und starke Emotionen symbolisierend, hervorgerufen durch das Medium Licht. Als Designer lieben wir das Medium Licht. Gerade Frankfurt regt dazu an, sich mit Beleuchtung zu beschäftigen. Wir glauben, dass Licht, wenn möglich, unsere Emotionen erwidern würde. Unsere Installation lässt Laserstrahlen explosionsartig aus einer zentralen Quelle schießen. Der innere Kern nimmt dabei die Form eines Herzens an. Einige Strahlen brechen aus, strahlen in die Tiefen des Tunnels und fügen damit der Installation eine dritte Dimension zu. Nebel macht die Laserstrahlen sichtbar, lässt sie aber dennoch mystisch erscheinen. LIGHT ♥ FRANKFURT is a play upon the jovial expression of love declared in the classic I♥NY logo. The stylized heart is rendered by criss-crossing blood red laser beams, that symbolise the passion, love and strong emotion that lighting can inspire. As designers we love the medium of light, and Frankfurt is a city that encourages and embraces good lighting, so we believe that if possible light would return the same sentiment. The installation itself consists of laser beams emerging from a central source as from an explosion, with its inner core taking up the shape of a heart. Some of the beams breake out and are emitted into the depth of the tunnel, adding a third dimension to the installation. Haze is created and used to make the laser beams visible, yet make them appear mystical.
