FRESNEL LIGHTS BY DIRK VANDER KOOIJ

This hanging lamp of designer Dirk vander Kooij looks like a brilliant gold colored celestial body, but it’s a lamp made out of recycled synthetics and metal. The form is derived from the Fresnel lens – a special lens that concentrates light into a relatively narrow beam which is used in for instance lighthouses, searchlights and navigation lights. The shape causes the light out of the 360 led lights to be sent up and down. The layered structure diffuses the warm light so it’s not unpleasant to look into the lamp.Furthermore, the lamp is hung up on a cup-and-ball joint so one can aim it accurately.

VANISHING POINT OF SANDRA TURINA

The collection Vanishing Point of Sandra Turina, was developed in cooperation with wood specialist Ruben van der Scheer. Inspired by some splits that fell off Ruben’s work bench, they were fascinated by their effect on perspective. Due to special cutting angles which Ruben used for some other products of his, the 3D impression of these wooden blocks was enhanced.
