The idea for the gear candle was inspired by juxtaposition, through the creative mind of Larry Tchogninou. The concept of the gear candle is to merge two time-related elements into one curious object. A gear turns with precision, while a candle melts, marking time in motion and decay. One endures, the other fades, yet both reveal time's unstoppable flow.
Reminscent of Tchogninou's favorite hangout moments with friends, this gear candle diffuses a gourmant "Boba Tea" fragrance. Scent formulated and crafted in collaboration with Alondra Ramos.

"RUPTUR VISION" by Larry Tchogninou is a design reflection approach based on 6 principal points: Bold and Crazy, Design as a means of communication, Colorful, Oppose use to create others, Question the unhappened.
Larry Tchogninou is a polymath multidisciplinary creative, product designer, and architecture student from Benin who has lived in Chicago since 2018. He is currently completing his Bachelors of Architecture at IIT (Illinois Institute of Technology). His work is an ode to optimism. His goal is to constantly show that it is never late for new ideas.
It is a new way to approach product design. Not a brand, but a philosophy. A different way to think and reimagine the familiar.
