Wooden pendant lamp – an example of ecodesign

Оригинальный деревянный подвесной светильник от Джона Прокарио

Curved hoop wooden pendant lamp

The man behind this wooden pendant lamp is American designer John Prokario. He is young enough, but has already become famous for his unusual works – furniture and interior items made of wood. His love of sculpture and light is embodied in an extremely simple yet intricate object called Flux I.

This lamp, like other Prokario products, is unique in that the wood in its image demonstrates a rather unusual state for itself. After all, few people, looking at an unusual object resembling a deformed hoop, will assume that it is not made of metal or PVC at all, but of a much less plastic material..

Light that is never perceived equally by the eye from two different vantage points further complicates the curved lines of this truly unique chandelier..

The Flux I uses long timber planks that have been steamed to give them sufficient flexibility. A special adhesive ensures a seamless connection of the ends of the strips, which makes the asymmetrical ring, which is a kind of lampshade, seem to be continuous. The model in the photo is made of bleached oak.

The glow comes from LED elements attached to the surface of the wood and covered with a layer of acrylic, giving the impression that the lampshade is emitting radiance by itself. Just by looking closely, you can see exactly where the LED strip is laid.

It is easy to guess that each of these lamps is unique, so if you want to become the owner of a truly exclusive decor item, hurry up to visit John Prokario’s website..
