Waves
By Will Fosnot
Most cases of mild insomnia are related to poor sleep habits, anxiety, or lack of exercise. Poor sleep habits are tied to a lack of routine and balance between rest and physical activity. This project 'Waves' aims to work with light as a regulating medium to help users maintain a healthy sleep hygiene. Its form is inspired by the solar reflections (sun glitter) on the ocean surface. Through variable illumination and surface forms, it captures both the quiet and peaceful moments at the sea as well as more aggressive and active moments.
