cloud

here's another suspended lamp from Rotaliana. designer Toyo Ito created Cloud by overlaying 5 thin layers of acrylic. the stratification of these layers, the breaks in continuity in the material building up the concentric spaces, the transparency of plastic material, and the reference to the changing shape and immateriality of clouds, all contribute towards the search for a new model of fluid substance. if your work involves any level of creativity, get one; i'm pretty sure these clouds can inspire you. if you claim that you only do routine work, these clouds can at least put a smile on your face or help you daydream.
