Conversations on Paper
Issue 7

July 2024

Our latest lighting collections arrived unexpectedly after we completed a unique commission for a client. During a studio visit last year, they encouraged our desire to experiment with different materials, sparking a fresh creative journey with paper.

On shelves and in corners around the studio, rolls of paper sat tightly bound, patiently waiting to be unfurled. It naturally became our main material for crafting lighting fixtures. We embraced its curls and coils, creating numerous maquettes until a chandelier emerged. Now, paper has become one of our primary mediums, and new collections glow on our studio walls.
Studio visits often precipitate and move us with force toward surprising unknowns. Our current lighting collections illustrate the potential of such fruitful exchanges.

Needless to say, connecting with our guests also drives our passion for mutual cross-pollination, and we invite you to join us this summer to share in the creative exchange.

Drafts in WHITE are bimonthly notes from our studio – inspirations, illuminations, and cultural explorations.
