Discover Our Scientific Collection: Between Art, Pedagogy and Fascinating Experiments
Our collection of scientific instruments pays tribute to iconic figures of science such as Isaac Newton, Leon Foucault and Dmitri Mendeleev. Each object embodies the perfect blend of pedagogy and aesthetics, inviting you to explore fascinating phenomena through unique products such as anti-gravity gyroscopes, Foucault's pendulum, or a periodic table with real chemical elements.
Exploration of Scientific Phenomena
Each product in this collection is a tribute to the great scientific discoveries that have marked history. Take for example the Anti-Gravity Gyroscope . This fascinating educational toy is directly inspired by the work of Léon Foucault, famous for having demonstrated the rotation of the Earth using his pendulum. The gyroscope allows you to visualize concepts such as rotation, inertia and conservation of angular momentum. By manipulating this object, you discover how forces oppose each other to maintain dynamic equilibrium.
The Newton's Cradle , meanwhile, is another must-have in this collection. This device demonstrates the conservation of energy and momentum, two fundamental principles of physics. Popularized by Isaac Newton, this pendulum is a perfect example of the simplicity of an invention that explains complex physical laws. Placed on a desk or shelf, this pendulum combines decor and education, while providing a perpetual demonstration of the transfer of energy.
Learning Through Do It Yourself (DIY) and Pedagogy
Do It Yourself (DIY) is not only a creative hobby, it is also a powerful educational tool. Manually building scientific objects allows you to understand complex concepts in a practical and fun way. That is why our collection includes several DIY products, such as Stirling Engines , Gyroscope Kits , or Anti-Gravity Building Blocks . By assembling these objects yourself, you discover the principles of thermodynamics, gravitation, and material physics through practice.
The Stirling Engine , for example, lets you explore how a heat engine works. Invented by Robert Stirling in 1816, this engine is a perfect demonstration of heat exchange and its conversion into mechanical energy. By building a DIY Stirling engine, you're not just admiring a fascinating invention, you're also learning the basics of thermodynamics.
Anti-Gravity Building Blocks - Tensegrity Sculptures are another example of learning through manipulation. Inspired by the tensegrity structures developed by Buckminster Fuller, these seemingly floating sculptures are a great way to learn about tension and compression. By putting these blocks together, you discover how opposing forces can create a stable equilibrium.
Active Pedagogy Through Interactive Objects
Active learning is an approach that stimulates thinking and retention of information. Self-balancing gyroscopes or rainbow projectors , for example, are not only fun gadgets, they are also powerful learning tools. By interacting with these objects, children and adults stimulate their curiosity while discovering concrete scientific principles.
Studies show that manipulating physical objects boosts cognitive abilities, and that’s exactly what these products offer. The Rainbow Projector uses prisms to split light, a phenomenon first described by Newton. This device shows how white light splits into different colors, illustrating the visible light spectrum.
A Collection Rich in Scientific Curiosities
Our collection is also an ode to chemical discoveries and natural elements. The Periodic Table with Real Elements is a flagship piece that draws inspiration from the monumental work of Dmitri Mendeleev. This table is not only decorative, it includes real samples of chemical elements, offering an interactive and tangible way to study chemistry.
Similarly, the Foucault Pendulum – Sand is a visual demonstration of the Earth’s rotation. With each swing, the pendulum leaves traces in the sand, making visible a phenomenon that we cannot perceive in everyday life. This product allows you to recreate Foucault’s experiment in your own space, combining science and art in a fascinating way.
Products like the Magnetic Hourglass transform everyday objects into scientific marvels. By watching metal particles align under the effect of a magnetic field, you discover the invisible forces that govern our world.
Decorative and Educational Scientific Objects
Our collection is also full of products that combine decoration and science. The LED Jellyfish Lamp and the Levitating Moon Globe are two perfect examples of objects that bring an aesthetic touch while stimulating imagination and curiosity. The lamp recreates the calming movement of jellyfish in the ocean, a fascinating phenomenon studied by biologists. The globe, meanwhile, appears to float in the air thanks to magnetic levitation, recalling the gravitational forces studied by Newton and Kepler.
These objects are both practical and educational, offering a lesson on natural phenomena while beautifying your spaces.
Art and Science Combined
Some pieces in the collection are directly inspired by science fiction and cinema while illustrating real physical principles. The Inception Spinning Top is an object inspired by the famous film Inception . This toy defies gravity while demonstrating the concepts of rotation and inertia. It is both fascinating and soothing to observe.
The Levitating Sneaker Display uses the same principles of magnetic levitation as our Lunar Globe, but applies this technology to an everyday object. This display is ideal for fashion and design enthusiasts, combining utility with innovative technology.
Learning Through the Great Names of Science
Our collection is a tribute to the scientists who changed the way we understand the world. Leon Foucault, Isaac Newton, Robert Stirling, Dmitri Mendeleev, and many others revolutionized their fields, and each product in this collection tells a part of their story. From Foucault’s Pendulum to the Periodic Table to the Anti-Gravity Gyroscope , these objects offer a fascinating glimpse into the discoveries that have shaped our understanding of the universe.
A Collection for All the Curious
Whether you are a teacher looking for interactive teaching tools, a parent wanting to spark your children's curiosity, or simply a science enthusiast, this collection has something for everyone. Each object has been carefully selected for its educational potential, but also for its aesthetic aspect, making them unique decorative pieces for your home or office.
An Invitation to Discover the Scientific World
Our scientific collection invites you to discover the laws that govern our world in a fun, educational and aesthetic way. Whether it's observing the principles of gravity, interacting with real chemical elements or handling a heat engine, each product is designed to stimulate curiosity and imagination.
With these objects, you can not only beautify your space, but also enrich your mind by exploring captivating scientific phenomena. Whether you are passionate about physics, chemistry or simply curious, this collection is a real gateway to the fascinating world of science.
