An Acquiescent Object – Elma
designed by: Bernice Chan

Elma the housekeeper fills the entire home with a pleasant aroma, replacing the stillness of an empty home smelling musty of cold vapour and unwashed clothes. It is always welcoming to come home to a warm fragrance, like freshly washed laundry and a soft illuminating light as if one’s favourite serial tune on TV just starting up. Elma lights up, feeling happy that her owner is back and continues to light up like a companion till he goes to bed.


An aroma diffuser for the working class.


A day cycle of Elma.
