Chariot

Chariot is a mobile table consisting of three simple elements joined together: wheels, trays and structure. The wheels,  usually small in common carts are amped up to the extreme in the Chariot's upright orthogonal projection, making them the iconic element of its design feature. The rubber profile is inserted into the wheels for easy movement; the two trays act as storage compartments, the metal structure is also a handle: slightly raising the cart, it can be moved.

Lightwing

Controlling light to adapt to momentary requirements is at the heart of the new project by Jean Marie Massaud, Lightwing. This new floor lamp is appealing both for its strong technical qualities and poetic language. A bold shape with soft silhouettes, which stands out in space and recalls the world of architecture, Lightwing is a shape controlling light to adapt to momentary requirements is at the heart of the new project by Jean Marie Massaud, Lightwing. This new floor lamp is appealing both for its strong technical qualities and poetic language. A bold shape with soft silhouettes, which stands out in space and recalls the world of architecture, Lightwing is a shape that is continuously evolving, much like the type of light it produces.

Tuareg

Tuareg’s carrying frame is defined by three principal tubular elements that branch off. Each houses an LED light source that is independently switched on and off and is adjustable 320 degrees. “Going beyond traditional geometric shapes, Tuareg stages an unexpected ‘orderly chaos’ due to the extreme stability and harmonious balance of its shape.”

Flip

The shape of the flip diffuser, made of injection molded poly carbonate is no coincidence, curving where the central pins are situated, folding back like a pair of wings to allow the adjustment of the lamp efficiently as well as elegantly. Flip can thus produce an effect where the luminosity is reflected towards the ceiling, diffusing the light throughout the room like a wall lamp, or lighting a specific limited area downwards. 

Yoko

A delicate and abstract bubble, which moves through space, fills the environment with a Northern white light: this is the image that immediately springs to mind with YOKO, the new table lamp by Norwegian designers Anderssen & Voll. Conceptual and ethereal, and simple yet sophisticated, YOKO is a table lamp with a bold and modern aesthetic that challenges the archetypal form of a traditional table lamp. YOKO features a transparent piece, which rests on an illuminating body. The lamp is the perfect balance of simplicity and lightness, in that it draws its inspiration from the image of a bubble about to burst resting on the light source.

Floating Volumes

Crystal Armchair

Design Luke Pearson & Tom Lloyd

The Crystal armchair was chosen to be displayed in Now! Design a Vivre fair in September 2012.This armchair has slanting corners reminiscent of ancient obelisk shapes, which create an architectural play of light and shadow. Full volumes appear to be floating above the floor on the hidden base. The Crystal collection includes a two or three-seat sofa and two strong individual armchairs. One armchair is square-shaped with bias cuts defining its seat, back and arms. The other has a round shape and is snug throughout with a round cushion in the middle. Both elements have a lifting effect from the floor due to the beveled base, featured throughout the collection. These pieces are useful in many different settings, homes and collective spaces.
