Bow, TOSSB
Since the Romans, the “arch” is one of the basics in architecture. It’s part of our daily life (even if we don’t notice it). It expresses, at the same time, deepness, strength, and equilibrium.
Bow is a family of decorative lamps with a strong graphic character. This project tries to condense the essence of arch geometry into a minimal lamp. The other two ingredients that play an important role in the product are gravity and balance.
The power cable, passing through thin bent metal pipes, draws lightweight arcs that hold up the metal lampshades. Bow family is composed of a floor/hanging lamp, and 7 different chandeliers (2, 4 or 6 bulbs). Only in black.
