Material: Ikea spot “LAGRA“, Ikea ceiling light “Lunta“, Cable ties
The ceiling light “Lunta“ is one of Ikeas classics and bestsellers.The simple conical form is integrable in nearly every kind of Space.The revision bursts this mainstream aesthetic and changes the figurative intention into its opposites. 12 longitudinal cuts split the metal-cone into same sized sections.These segments are then bent into soft, baroque shapes, which unfold to a conspicuous chandelier.
4 “LAGRA“ spots serve as additional light sources.The industrial perfection is deconstructed and yields to a series of individual items with personalized shaping.
