The ribbed fabric was stretched out on crossed wire flanges to display these coconut-like pendant lamps at the New York studio Rich Brilliant Willing.
The collection of Mori lamps by Rich Brilliant Willing comes from the name of transformed silkworms derived from the cocoon of a moth.
To create translucent lamps, we drew a fabric coating across thin steel flanges to form the luminaire.
Then a layer of white matte varnish is sprayed on the material to coat and seal the threads, resulting in lasting shades.
When the LED lamp is lit, a soft light penetrates the membrane and the metal frame becomes visible.
Four rounded shapes, variations of height and width, make up the collection, which was launched during the New York Design Week last month.
Plans can also be installed as individual elements or as clusters with combinations of different sizes.
