Bompas & Parr unveil a world first in design: a chandelier that shines its light on vaping

Flavour architects Bompas & Parr have collaborated with blu eCigs to create a first-of-its-kind chandelier that emits a mist designed to emulate characteristics of e-cigarette vapour, inspired by the distinctive blue light that shines from blu electronic cigarettes.

The renowned culinary experience designers, who founded their namesake Bompas & Parr in 2007 and have led the forefront in flavour-based experiences, have taken their unique brand of flavour architecture to new territory, drawing inspiration from the futuristic technology of e-cigarettes to reconstruct the process of vaping on the largest scale ever seen.

15 litres of a non-nicotine version of blu eCigs bluBERRY flavoured e-liquid combine with water to create a ‘blu mist’ of vapour that cascades from the chandelier to create a completely immersive experience.

The blu Chandelier uses light, flavour and sound to produce a multi-sensory piece of art. Users step into a blue glow - inspired by the LED light that shines when a blu eCigs electronic cigarette is vaped – to become enveloped in gently billowing blueberry-scented vapour that can been seen and tasted. Turning the concept of a household object on its head, the chandelier will appear almost alive to guests as the sounds of breathing fill the space.

Following the one-day showcase, the Bompas and Parr blu chandelier design will be available for hire for festive parties and private events, for a cost of £10,000. The design took three months to produce from initial design to completion.
