"Feel Ordinary Life" Aromatic Candles Reimagine Ginger, Garlic, and Scallions as Sensory Art

Chunyang Wang, in collaboration with Qianqian Yao, has transformed the familiar scents and forms of ginger, garlic, and scallions into an unexpected sensory experience with the "Feel Ordinary Life" aromatic candle collection. Drawing inspiration from the daily rituals of Chinese households, the designers have crafted candles that surprise and delight by juxtaposing the ordinary with the extraordinary. Each candle is meticulously handmade to replicate the natural, asymmetrical shapes of these culinary staples, offering a unique visual and olfactory journey.

The collection stands out for its inventive blend of traditional Chinese culture and modern design sensibilities. Rather than simply mimicking the pungent aromas of the ingredients, each candle features a sophisticated fragrance profile: the ginger candle combines floral and fruity notes, the garlic candle offers a fresh and spicy bouquet, and the scallion candle delivers a woody and citrusy aroma. This thoughtful approach transforms everyday kitchen ingredients into elegant works of art, appealing to both the eyes and the nose, and creating a memorable gift or decorative piece.

The candles' production required overcoming significant technical challenges, particularly in mold-making, to achieve lifelike and vivid reproductions of the original plants. The result is a set of candles that burn in ever-changing patterns due to their asymmetrical forms, making each use a unique artistic experience. The collection was exclusively available at Tsutaya Books, OoEli, Hangzhou for a limited time, further enhancing its allure as a collectible item. The recognition by the A' Design Award highlights the project's excellence in creativity, craftsmanship, and its contribution to elevating everyday life through design.
