Living in the Environment Issue

Issue 62 is the first issue of the year and always a great time to put our best foot forward. With Adam Goodrum, the loveliest man in design, as Guest Editor, we draw on his insights as a furniture designer, artist and educator to look at the makers shaping our design world. Sustainability has never been more important, and increasingly this is a consideration from the start with projects designed to address their immediate environment as well as the longevity of the planet. From the coldest winters to the most tropical of summers, addressing how we live in the environment is crucial to creating the perfect home.

Spokes Suspension Lamp

By Space
View on Site

Released at the 2014 Salone del Mobile, the Foscarini Spokes suspension lamps were inspired by images of antique oriental lanterns and aviaries. Designed by Vicente Garcia Jimenez and Cinzia Cumini also observed the spokes of a bicycle wheel which gave the lamp its name. The result is soft shapes and a lightweight lamp which holds the light allowing it to filter out into the room.

The lightweight quality of the lamp combines with the solidity of its form, made of metal rod, and the practicality of its LED light source, allowing it both to illuminate surfaces and project an interplay of light and shade onto the walls with a multiplication effect.

The manufacturing process used – bending the metal rod – is suggested by the form of the lamp itself which also includes a small recess concealing the light source, an innovative way to make the electric cable invisible. The development of the Spokes lamp into two forms, sizes and colours highlights its versatility, making it suitable for both living spaces and public venues.
