Otsuchi

Otsuchi is a table lamp made from deer leather sourced in Otsuchi, Iwate, Japan. The town was struck by the tsunami caused by the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. Local crops were later damaged as the number of deer increased and the number of residents declined. Local hunters began a game meat business to make use of deer hunted as pests. The lamp is built from a 3D printed structure covered with deer leather, and the texture recalls the form of a living animal. The design honors the life of the deer and offers a calm presence.

Nevi

Designed by Andrei LiLo, Nevi is a desk lamp built around a self centering kinetic system. Constructed from hand finished Aisi 304 stainless steel, the lamp features a spherical base and a slender vertical stem. It functions as a task light with a focused beam, while also responding to touch with a gentle oscillation that returns the object to its vertical axis. The project extends to its aluminum packaging, which is designed to transform into a secondary ambient light. Released as a numbered limited edition, Nevi explores the relationship between kinetic behavior and material presence.

Anima

Anima is an outdoor lamp designed for garden and landscape lighting. The main components are made of premium acrylic glass, which withstands temperature changes and physical impacts. Two decorative elements with a water pattern interact with integrated LED lights to create a caustic effect that recalls natural water. LEDs placed above and beside the acrylic parts give warm, diffused light directed upward and downward. The precision machined metal body houses an LED module with specialized optics. The lamp is 750 mm high and 170 mm wide.

Hope

Hope is a table lamp that combines traditional ceramic craft with modern LED lighting. The body is made of natural ceramic, shaped by established methods, and is joined with a metal frame and an acrylic diffuser. An integrated LED board gives a strong light output suitable for work areas. Brightness is adjusted by touching a metal sphere, so the lamp can also serve as a night light or a decorative object. Two interchangeable sphere finishes, chrome and brass, are included. The lamp measures 355 mm in height, 260 mm in width and 84 mm in depth.

Zero

Zero is a track light designed for magnetic track systems. The circular form of Zero refers to the symbol of zero, representing both beginning and infinity. A magnetic mounting system allows fast installation on the upper or the lower side of a track, for ceiling, wall or pendant use. A rotation mechanism adjusts the direction of the light beam. LEDs with a colour temperature of 3000 K and a matte white diffuser give comfortable, glare free light across a wide 180 degree beam angle. The module uses 10 W and gives 550 lumens.
