Amore was born from moments of affection, movement, and form.

It began with a ficus triangularis, a plant often called the 'Sweetheart Tree'. Take a look at the image gallery - its leaves carry a quiet resemblance to a heart. When I brought it home for our nursery, my wife instantly fell in love with it. That simple reaction stayed with me. Love doesn’t always announce itself; sometimes it’s just felt.
 
I remember being in Bali, just watching the waves - I couldn’t stop looking at how they move. That became the starting point for the form of Amore, something that flows gently and never feels still.
 
At the same time, Amore became an exploration of what 3D printing could express beyond utility. I wanted to push the medium towards something bold and sculptural, inspired by the classical sculptures I encountered during my travels through Florence, Italy in 2024 where form, emotion, and craftsmanship coexist effortlessly.
 
By bringing together those moments, Amore took shape. A sculptural light defined by flow, and named after the Italian word for love. Take a closer look, and you'll find five hearts come together as a sculptural whole. As much as I love storytelling, my wife says Amore looks like a marshmallow. Oh well.
