DESIGN NAME: le Lumiere
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Lighting Fixture
INSPIRATION: energy saving light bulbs that most of the time are big and not to beautiful. I wanted to create a bulb less lamp.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This ‘bulbless’ lamp uses the latest, dimmable 25 Watt LEDs. The lamp bracket hangs on three thin threads, one of which is actually used for the power supply. The lamp bracket with minimal proportions can also be supplied with two lampshades differing in height that alter the atmosphere to suit the user. In this way, an interior can be given a different impact with just one action. This fits in with the contemporary interior trend: D.I.Y., utilizing flexible furniture that ensures an effective and dynamic use of the space.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The lamp bracket is an LED illuminated ring that can be used with or without a lampshade. Using the two forms of lampshades, it is very easy to adapt the look and functionality of the lamp and thus the look of the room. The lampshades come in white & black. The look can also be varied by the dimming function of the LED lighting. The fact that the lamp is not immediately visible has an unusual effect and transforms the lamp into a pure play in shapes that fits well with a stylized interior. The lamp can be used as a solitary feature, and is also suitable as a repetitive and therefore space-defining shape.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started june 2010 and finished in May 2011. Le Lumiere was exhibited in 100% Design in may in Rotterdam.
