Design Dreams

In this parametric design video designer Rick Tegelaar explains how the Meshmatics Chandelier he developed at university became a Moooi product in this movie in our Design Dreams series for the Dutch brand. Launched by Moooi at Milan design week in 2017, Tegelaar’s Meshmatics Chandelier is made from three concentric, inverted wire-mesh domes of different diameters and heights. The wire structure reflects light emitted from an LED source concealed within a smaller gold dome at the base of the chandelier. “It’s a big light, but it’s not a big visual block,” Tegelaar says in the movie, which Dezeen filmed for Moooi in Arnhem and Amsterdam in the Netherlands. “It’s really transparent. It’s almost like a cage for the light, so you have all these different transparencies and reflections that give this very basic material something almost magical.” The light is the culmination of many years work for Tegelaar – he first developed the technique of using wire mesh to create lights while studying product design at ArtEZ University of the Arts in Arnhem between 2007 and 2011. He says that he felt mixed emotions in finally letting go of the product. “Meshmatics Chandelier being in the collection of Moooi is a bit like my child leaving home,” he says. “It is a bit scary, but it’s also nice to see the product really taking off and popping up in showrooms around the world.” Read more on Dezeen: https://www.dezeen.com/?p=1236491 WATCH NEXT: Design Dreams: Arihiro Miyake on Coppélia Chandelier – https://youtu.be/X8OSxue1DXI Subscribe to our YouTube channel for the latest architecture and design movies: http://bit.ly/1tcULvh Like Dezeen on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dezeen/ Follow Dezeen on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Dezeen/ Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dezeen/ Check out our Pinterest: https://uk.pinterest.com/dezeen/

    Hey there,

    Hope you and your business are doing well. We’ve all been through so much this year!

    I’m really sorry to bother you, and I know you are super busy, but I have been checking your website, and it seems that you are not ranking well for your ad words and key phrases. I actually help businesses like yours get a better ranking in google by using 10 proven techniques below.

    I would really love the opportunity to work with you and your business, and bring your website to the top of Google’s list – the sweet spot where you get clicks and more business!

    Please let me tell you some of the techniques that I can use below to help you get a better ranking in google search:

    1. Title Tag Optimizations are missing, I can add these to your site.
    2. Meta Tag Optimization descriptions are absent, I can add them too.
    3. Heading Tags Optimization – No problem getting those put in there.
    4. Targeted keywords are not placed into tags correctly.
    5. Alt / Image tags Optimization is not present – it would take me seconds to write these.
    6. Google Publisher is missing; I can set this up for you
    7. Custom 404 Page is missing and I can create this for you.
    8. The Products are not following Structured mark-up data, let me edit that in google webmaster tools.
    9. Website Speed Development (Both Mobile and Desktop) I can make some tweaks and show you a speed performance using GTMetrics or Pingdom
    10.Content Creation SEO work – As a native English speaker, I can create fantastic articles that people will want to read and share, these will bring business to you by word of mouth rather than expensive promotion via google paid search.

    I’m sorry if this sounds a little technical, but rest assured, these techniques will certainly improve you ranking in search. I am so confident that I will offer you a full refund of my fee should you not see an improvement in your google ranking within two months.

    We’ve got lots to do together to make you stand out!

Rest assured that we will not contact you again should you reply to this email with the word ‘unsubscribe’
