The name POV is short for “Point of View”. In the movies the POV is right where the camera is aiming. The eye of the viewer. And depending on that point of view, things will change – settings, stories and the way we interpret things.

Move around the POV candle holder and you will notice that your view alters the holder. From some angles it seems like a flat graphical drawing – move around it and suddenly the graphic lines floats in mid air. Shadows and shapes change, making it a fun object to interact with.
The POV candle holder is a light, smart and playful product that can be used as a single piece or in a group. Beautiful on its own and stunning as graphical patterns on the wall or on the table. Note Design Studio is a Stockholm-based design studio founded in 2008. We are Alexis Holmqvist, Susanna Wåhlin, Johannes Carlström, Kristoffer Fagerström and Cristiano Pigazzini.
