This beautifully sculptural form is created with 80 metres of steam bent strips of English Ash, woven, coiled and twisted around one another. Whether the light is on or off, this is a unique and stunning lampshade. Each one is handmade, signed and dated by myself.

Visible concrete is part of the language of modern architecture and, with Aplomb, Foscarini presents a model that uses this material with completely new and innovative technology.  The material is translated, from large-scale architecture to a small suspension light, for interiors making it an elegant product with a simple formality, inspired by a material that has always been linked to the world of construction. This is what also inspires its name: Aplomb, a plumb-bob traditionally used by masons. However, aplomb also means ‘self-possessed, confident’, like this lamp that distances itself from aseptic minimalism with all the material richness of concrete.

Matt and I met at the Royal College of Art.  He’s a photographer and I’m a ceramicist.  The Tangle Lamp is the collecting together of some of our aesthetic interests.  I think you can see strongly Matt’s influence as a photographer on the design through the use of directional light and mine in the form of delicate porcelain flutes that create a swaith of many openings. The Tangle Lamp is the result of hours of discussion and argument over every detail. The result is bold but I think also results in quite a calm object as we made sure every detail was resolved.

THX 1138 is a freestanding lamp made of aluminium and painted steel. A large disc resting on a thin stem holds the light source: the light, generated by a combination of energy-saving LEDs, is diffused toward the ceiling for a sober, even effect. THX 1138 is available in two versions: one, a high impact design with one meter diameter disc, is an ambient installation. The other, of smaller, more commercially viable size, is a lot like a traditional stem lamp. Available in black or white.

More books are printed every year, read and discarded. Even though many are taken to charity shops, they mostly go unsold and the charities have to pay for the books to be sent to landfill. For example 10,000 books a week from one charity will go to waste. There is currently no infrastructure set up to recycle the paper from books because the paper is low grade and the glue on the spine must be removed. These wasted books are used to create a beautiful chandelier. Every page is folded in half, producing a circular arrangement which hangs around a ceiling light.

In theory, the surface diagonals of a cube should create two pyramids in space. In practice, the nickel-plated, polished brass LUM creates an array of stars, rectangular forms and other attractive geometric shapes, depending on the perspective of the viewer. The lamp also conjures up an equally atmospheric interplay of light and shadow.
