2 new twists on lighting. one literally...

happy friday morning! i wanted to share 2 new twists/takes on lighting that i'm currently loving...
the first line, the "ray collection" by lagranja design for fabbian is twisty sensational. to me, they are reminiscent of the spinning air duct tops that you see on restaurant rooftops. or you might say they are suggestive of blinds, and the light that peaks through the slats...

the second line, these "slope pendant lights" by skrivo for miniforms are playing with my current steel/wood fascination. the form is conical, made of beechwood and steel. and what i love most is that each material is tactile and rather raw. left mostly alone, to admire the material for what each is, for how beautiful and beautifully simple each one is...i love that! enjoy...

p.s. i located both of these lights & companies via contemporist, a really great design resource. check them out!
