The Compassion Flower

Our lights listen to your environment and actively generates unique patterns based on pitch and volume.

People work together to craft pattern, color palette, warp effects, and more. It has so much depth, each touch evolves the space.

All our lights communicate with

our custom radio network and wifi, bringing together your space 🚀

With copper touch pads anyone can effortlessly control effects, add more fingers to control palette, or work together to trigger glitter!

Our LEDs can produce the full spectrum including warm to cool white, any pastel color, and the full rainbow with 4.27 billion possibilities.

From fluid and smooth to pulsating and powerful our effects play with movement and color to create a dynamic experience.

Intricately cut and arranged internal mirrors create infinite portals within each petal.

Every part was sculpted in 3D, and printed on our custom created 3D Printers. Then coated in automotive paints blended with mica.

Inspired by the trillium flower, the first flower to bloom each spring in Western North Carolina
