【 Description｜作品介紹 】
Filo is a smart heater that reimagines the comforting experience of sitting around a fire. Inspired by the emotional warmth of a campfire, Filo uses a pixel-based light panel to simulate flickering flames, turning heat into a shared, sensory experience. It supports 2–3 users and promotes connection through both function and atmosphere.
Heat levels are visualized through animated pixel intensity, providing instant, intuitive feedback. The suspended top lets users warm their hands naturally; when motion is detected, the heater responds with a 5-minute heat boost—mimicking how fire reacts to presence.
Filo features a 57mm sliding ignition switch modeled after striking a match, and vertical hand gestures control power levels—up to increase, down to decrease—making interaction symbolic and intuitive.
Its compact, rounded form is finished in a gradient texture resembling burning charcoal. A vertical airflow system ensures efficient heat distribution. Unlike conventional heaters, Filo merges smart sensing and emotional design to create a personal, meaningful warmth.

Filo 是一款中小型智慧暖爐，靈感來自於圍坐營火的溫暖體驗。它將火光帶來的情感連結與現代科技融合，打造出既有功能性又具情感溫度的取暖方式，適合 2–3 人共同使用，鼓勵交流與分享。
Filo 採用像素化燈光面板模擬跳動的火焰，透過像素數量和亮度即時回饋加熱強度，讓暖氣過程更具感知性和氛圍感。頂部採用懸浮式設計，使用者可自然地將手伸近取暖口；當感應到動作時，Filo 會自動開啟 5 分鐘的熱量增強響應，彷彿火焰因人而動，富有生命感。
點火方式採用一枚 57 毫米滑動式開關，靈感來自劃火柴的動作，喚起人們對點火這一原始行為的記憶。加熱強度可透過上下手勢調整：上滑增溫，下滑減溫，操作直覺且富有像徵意義。
外觀上，Filo 體積緊湊、線條圓潤，表面覆蓋漸變紋理，模擬炭火燃燒的視覺效果，既自然又現代。內部採用垂直空氣流動系統，從下方吸入冷空氣、上方釋放暖風，提升加熱效率與空間使用率。
與傳統以功能為導向、互動方式單一的暖爐不同，Filo 更著重於使用者的情感參與與生活場景中的互動體驗。它將智能感應、象徵性操作與人本設計結合，不僅提供溫暖，更傳遞一種熟悉而親密的儀式感。
