Make design a ritual of self-awareness. Based in London, Vincent Villeger from VILLEGER is a product and packaging designer with a career grounded in luxury and beauty. A creative partner to Burberry, Givenchy, Molton Brown, and Pangaia, his contribution to Make a Mark explores identity through fragrance: Who I Shall Become is a sculptural diffuser that represents the duality between who we are now and who we aspire to be. The object consists of two chambers in iridescent glass. One side is structured and sharply defined: QUI SUM, who I am. The other is fluid and unresolved: QUI ERO, who I shall become. The user slides the top to release one scent or the other, choosing between reflection or projection, reality or intention. Duality in form, material, and meaning. Making that tension tangible demanded precision in both structure and surface. The Dual Chamber: ESTAL engineered an iridescent glass form where straight planes absorb light quietly while organic surfaces reflect it in shifting hues, expressing the evolving self through colour. The Mutable Surface: Avery Dennison provided materials that contrast matt gold certainty against shimmering, color-changing holographic surfaces, reinforcing the subjective nature of becoming. The Grounding Glow: LEONHARD KURZ applied gold lacquer to the base, creating warmth and tradition that glows when the flame is lit, reinforcing presence and contemplation. With every gesture, the object becomes a ritual of self-awareness. Every surface, every transition, is a meditation on change, on the subtle space between being and becoming. Identity is not a fixed truth but a journey shaped by sensation, memory, and desire. The chromatic tension of self: The Space Between Being and Becoming.
