Schon Lamp

Schon Lamp is an innovative lighting fixture that exemplifies the harmonious fusion of minimalist design principles and functional illumination, created by designers Mostafa Arvand and Sepideh Golgoon. Drawing inspiration from the organic forms of seashells, this sophisticated lamp features a distinctive two-part construction with light sources strategically positioned at its center to produce uniform, soft illumination. The design's architectural composition comprises a separable light surface from the main body, incorporating modern touch-sensitive technology for intuitive operation. Standing at 380mm in height with a 250mm width and depth, the lamp employs advanced materials and nano-coating technology to maintain its pristine appearance while weighing less than 400 grams. The lamp's innovative features include energy-efficient operation, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability without compromising aesthetic appeal. The design philosophy emphasizes simplicity and functionality, manifested through its clean lines and ergonomic form. Developed in Tehran during 2013, this lighting solution addresses the market need for energy-efficient, elegant lighting fixtures that balance sophistication with practicality. The lamp's unique characteristics, including its uniform light distribution and modular construction, earned it the Silver A' Design Award in the Lighting Products and Fixtures Design category in 2014, recognizing its contribution to innovative lighting design. The design successfully overcomes the challenge of creating an economically viable product that maintains a prestigious aesthetic while adhering to minimal form principles, representing a significant advancement in contemporary lighting design.
