Depois de Waldemar Cordeiro

In c.1955 a Brazilian artist designed and made a lamp to illuminate a garden landscape designed by him. There is only a single register of the lamp: a small piece of journal with its photograph. That was the starting point to recreate the lamp and the light effect produced by it: from a single source of light, due to internal reflections and the different distances from the source to the white rings, a 4W LED lamp can create a range of shades, varying from dark gray to pure white.

Wall Washer

The wall washer is a linear type lamp with rich colors and high-quality lighting effects. Through precise optical design, the wall washer lights have a unique seven-in-one digital light and color technology to achieve a wide color gamut mixing range; wider color coverage and intelligent color toning give designers unlimited possibilities. As an outdoor lamp, it does not need a conspicuous appearance design. Its beauty lies in the fact it can be integrated with the outline lines of the building.

The Sixth Sence

The lamp was developed under the influence of the research about the concept of proprioception. This special, muscular sense, thanks to which a person feels his own body in space, is informally called the Sixth Sense. Thanks to this design approach, it has been developed a floor lamp that a person can use with their eyes closed, without being distracted from their work or leisure. With the help of a base, the lamp can be placed as close as possible to the workplace or even between and furniture. And also with the help of switches located at the arm's length.

The Union Church

The Union Church was founded in 1886, located closely to the Bund in Shanghai. It hasn't been properly reused for many years until 2021, and it will be transformed into a music performance space. The aim of lighting design is to create a small and beautiful spiritual space meeting the need of performing. The functional light is used to create a uniform and comfortable lighting environment and meet the needs of the stage lighting at the same time. The main pendant light is a ‘creative highlight’, combining both the lighting and acoustic requirements.
