MAN-O-WAR, BOX AND MOON

 

Working with light is magical. You become the ‘puppeteer’ of a given space. I wanted to explore how to recreate some of the beauty and drama of nature inside our living areas.

The Nemo lamp collection draws its inspiration from the small, elegant jellyfish that inhabit our ocean.  They are character-ful and magical; perfect candidates for a new lighting family. Through the combination of contrasting materials, textures and colour, this was translated into lighting.

With bent steel legs and formed felt shades, the lightweight lamps provide mood and functional lighting while also aiding with acoustics. The lamps come in three sizes and individual names matching their real-life counterparts: the tall “Man-o-war”, the medium “Box” and the short “Moon”. Whether standing alone, or as a family, Nemo lamps add character and warmth to any living space.

These prototypes were hand-made at the academy workshops. Materials are P.E.T felt, 6mm diameter steel rod legs, textile cord and LED bulbs.

Exact dimensions and sizes are available on request.
