What Caustics shows
Caustics recreates the light that ripples under water: the moving surface focuses the sun’s rays into bright threads that drift across the tiles. Tiny particles float in the clear water.
The surface gets choppier as the energy rises, and the light tightens on the beat. A fresh, summery world, ideal for tropical house, lounge, chill and summer evenings.
