Lightness Table
This lightweight trestle table is for working environments is designed according to the Cradle to Cradle principles. Based on a very innovative use of natural materials, a composite tabletop has been developed that consists of jute and linen textiles and bio-plastic. Because of the application of biodegradable fabrics and plastics, the tabletop is completely compostable. Moreover, it gives the material a warm and human look and touch. The lightweight table top is supported by a pair of stackable, anodized aluminum trestles.
Copper Lights
VISIT THE WEBSHOP HERE
Simply by folding, a thin copper sheet can be used to construct stable forms. This principle defines the shape and aesthetics of the Copper Lights. For precise bending, the lines have been etched halfway into the material. The sheets are then folded and assembled by hand in The Netherlands.
By reflecting its surroundings, each facet gets a different tone, from dark brown to red to orange. The material gives a warm color to the light that shines from these delicate lamps. The three variations of the Copper Lights make them suitable for many different interior applications.
The Copper Lights are available directly from David Derksen Design. For enquiries please send us an email or visit the webshop. (more…)
