A Universe of Undiscovered Species
Did you know that we've explored less than 5% of the Earth's oceans? Scientists estimate that there could be anywhere from 700,000 to 1 million species living in the oceans that we haven't discovered yet. Just imagine the potential for inspiration! -
The Ocean's Bioluminescent Light Show
Many deep-sea creatures produce their own light through bioluminescence. This natural phenomenon creates stunning displays of blue, green, and sometimes red light in the darkest parts of the ocean. Our Adella shell's subtle glow in low light pays homage to this magical oceanic light show. -
Underwater Lakes and Rivers
Believe it or not, there are lakes and rivers on the ocean floor! These bodies of water have a higher salt content, making them denser than the surrounding seawater. They even have their own shorelines and surfaces. -
The Ocean's Role in Our Climate
The ocean absorbs about 30 times more CO2 than our atmosphere. It plays a crucial role in regulating our planet's climate, reminding us of the importance of ocean conservation. -
The World's Largest Living Structure
Australia's Great Barrier Reef is so large it can be seen from space. It's home to thousands of species and stretches over 2,300 kilometers. Our Attina shell's intricate patterns are reminiscent of the complex ecosystems found in coral reefs.
How These Facts Inspire Our Designs
At House of Nooh, we're constantly in awe of the ocean's wonders. These fascinating facts remind us of the complexity, beauty, and importance of our marine environments. They inspire us to create pieces that not only capture the aesthetic appeal of the ocean but also spark conversations about its preservation.
Our founders often say, "Every design should tell a story, and what better storyteller than the ocean itself?" This philosophy is evident in the curves of our Adella shell, mimicking the fluid motion of waves, and in the intricate textures of our Attina shell, echoing the diverse life found in coral reefs.
