Well, after some research into cultural factors such beliefs and superstitions revolving around 'Feng Shui', I decided to mimic an existing product but to inject some designer features in to it that would not only boost its overall image aesthethically but maintain its cutural meaning which is very important. As discussed earlier, i mentioned an interest in the scrolls and banners hung from house/apartment walls that symbolised wealth, well-being etc...I wish to endeavour this aspect further by implementing an 'Acrylic' version that would have a light source (preferably an LED) shinning from the bottom that would create a illuminating effect. It would be a feature in the room rather than a light itself that would have the desired messege/image/symbol either laser cut or sand blasted on the acrylic surface in which the light would coincide and illuminate this feature further. In terms of scale, it has'nt yet been decided nor the issue of it being a set piece on a table or hung on a wall but all will be decided in due time...yea thats it for now aye stay tuned for more HombreZz...

perspex is very 'current' and could be interesting.. you need to be careful to ensure that the design doesnt become 'cheap' looking or tacky.
