Story
Hēlios is the epitome of modern kinetic art, turning any room into an oasis of introspection and calm. More than a sculpture – an experience. A reprieve from the rush. A source of peace and inspiration at the intersection of technology and art. Every movement is unique on a stage of infinite iterations, a silent symphony orchestrating fluidity and balance in a way that’s never been seen before.
The modern, clean features combined with beautiful materials will complement any space and aesthetic.
Hēlios is perfect for your home or office. Any space can benefit from a touch of motion, from your living room, foyer, bedroom, desk, or bookshelf. Hēlios is sure to be a great conversation starter and will make a statement anywhere you display it.
Display Hēlios anywhere for over 40 days of motion with the rechargeable, long-lasting battery. No cables to disrupt the flow of your space. Hēlios is conveniently rechargeable via the included USB-C cable.
Hēlios features a power-saver mode that monitors ambient light and pauses the motion in dark environments. When light returns, Hēlios reawakens to mesmerize and captivate once again.
Hēlios moves by magnetism, so there are no noisy motors or gears. Stay focused or relaxed with whisper quiet operation.
Hēlios’ motion is a beautiful demonstration of physics in action. Energy is converted from electrical energy, to magnetic energy, and finally to kinetic energy to drive the rings’ rotation. Perpetual motion may not be possible, but perpetual intrigue may be.
Hēlios embraces the beauty of simplicity – no need for a WIFI connection, bluetooth, or a mobile app. Unplug, refresh, and let the calming motion guide you on your path to serenity.
Crafted from high quality and durable materials, every facet of Hēlios has been carefully designed to be elegant, robust, and reliable.
The base is carved from solid hardwood, the central axis is machined from solid brass, and the rings are injection molded for enduring performance. Cork padding ensures stability on any surface and high quality bearings provide smooth, fluid motion for years to come.
Hēlios can be turned on, off, or put into power-saver mode (ambient light monitoring) by sliding the switch on the bottom:
What’s In the The Box
In addition to Hēlios, all orders will include a USB-C charging cable.
Hēlios has come a long way from its initial concept. The initial designs were bulky, noisy, had a short runtime, and some were even powered by a weight (like a clock)! After countless hours 3D printing, laser cutting, machining, iterating, and testing, the Hēlios you see today emerged. It is truly one of a kind.
