SOFTLIGHTS
ETHOSThe vibrant colour, emotional shapes and soft lighting are the main characteristics of what we call soft options in SKK’s design philosophy.
Each animal has a story and is iconic in its own right.
Gorilla, or ‘Gorillaluce’ is the very first of Shiu Kay Kan’s designs that escapes geometric forms towards an organic human scale. Some of the profits from the gorilla sales are donated to a monkey trust in Africa to protect endangered species. It has taken him and his team 18 months to reach the tooling stage of the model.
The Bull Terrier is called ‘Onion’, named after the original dog. Her owner, Aaron, gave SKK copyright to immortalise her in plastic after her elevation to fame in the film ‘Scenes of a Sexual Nature’ playing Tom Hardy’s pet. Now she can glow with pride that she has a light made after her.
Buddha lamp has Sri Lankan roots, Shiu-Kay has travelled around the globe for inspira-tion and it was during the struggle between two races living in the same country which longed for peace, that sparkled the concept to model Buddha. Now the county has found peace, Shiu-Kay has returned to the country, helping peace to continue eco-tour-ism.
Robot was created after seeing a beautiful vintage robot toy in New Zealand. It took quite a few attempts to get his design to fit the bill but now we think he looks just right; Modern lines with a mechanical 50’s style. It’s a shame he doesn’t do hoovering!
Shiu-Kay takes inspiration from many places. The could come from a conversation or a trip abroad. Either way, inspiration and creativity are important to rejuvenate our lives. Shiu-Kay would like to recommend you to watch these films as they have been inspira-tional tools for his design process:
The spirit of the beehives
Sunset boulevard
My spectacle theatre
Austin Powell
Cinema paradiso
