Loop.pH: H-E-A-V-Y!!!
Loop.pH is a design and research studio that creates and develops new surfaces & structures, conducts an extensive range of research activities and collaborates with industry. It is a multidisciplinary partnership set up in 2003 by Rachel Wingfield with artist Mathias Gmachl after meeting on a FoAM project in the UK. Together they have fabricated reactive surfaces for a variety of environments, from the public to the domestic. Their work aims to provide a more intuitive understanding of our natural environment, from day-night cycles to power consumption. Research into the physiological effects of light and colour on the human body is a strong component in their work. They are developing textile-based ambient displays for the home with active textiles that visualise information through dynamic pattern and colour change.
