N series trailers
Designer Aaron Scott crafts his designs with a sense of mathematical rigor, working within this undefined space between art and design. Scott is influenced by the intricacies of nature and a lifelong passion for mathematics. His N Series pendant lights use "rotational symmetry" in their design and execution. The wooden tags are made using a layer lamination process and then shaped by hand. The interior of the N-Au pendant is encased in gold leaf, exuding a warm glow.
work lamp
The Work lamp was designed by the Swedish design studio Form Us With Love for Design House Stockholm. Form Us With Love has reimagined the faceless yet functional construction light – an anonymous light found in garages and workshops across the country – and created a sophisticated, robust and practical indoor light. The task light is available in several versions: iron cage, gold-plated (24 K), copper-plated or chrome-plated, all with black rubber cable and dimmer.
Lento One pendant
The Lento One pendant light has a decidedly Nordic look. Lento One was designed by Timo Niskanen, the founder of the Finnish company Himmee, and belongs to a family of three pendant lamps - the others are called Two and Three. The collection is inspired by classic UFO cartoons and toys, and each pretty pendant features a hand-blown opaline glass diffuser with an interchangeable aluminum shade.
Swirl Pendant
The origins of the Danish lighting company Le Klint date back to the early 20th century. Back then, architect Peder Vilhelm Jensen-Klint designed a hand-folded lampshade that was folded to fit a kerosene lamp; Friends and family worked to refine the shade. In 1943 Le Klint became a real company, run by Tage Klint. Today, Le Klint's Pleating Technicians continue the tradition of hand pleating and folding their paper and plastic lampshades at the company's original pleating studio in Odense, Denmark. An example is the Swirl pendant lamp by industrial designer Øivind Slaatto. Swirl was inspired by Slaatto's interest in nature and mathematical principles: for this reason the design incorporates the idea of a snail shell and the designer's fascination with "fractals" (one to google).
