The Scaffold Lights are born from the concept of light structures and flexible skins. Geometric metal wire frames support and pull elastic skins into organic shapes, creating contrasts of material and form, which is further highlighted when the lamps are switched on.
The family consists of nine lighting objects that can be hung in a cage-holder to be used as a standing-light, placed on surfaces like tables and consoles as well hung in an array from the ceiling like jewellery charms. The colours of the lamps can be changed by wearing different skins, suiting the moods of the user and the interior space.
Lanzavecchia + Wai is a creative collaboration between Francesca Lanzavecchia and Hunn Wai. To them, being designers means being researchers, engineers, craftsmen and story-tellers all at the same time.
Wai hails from the south-east Asian island state of Singapore, educated as an industrial designer at the National University while Lanzavecchia received her BA in Product Design from Politecnico di Milano, Italy. They began their cooperation at the Design Academy Eindhoven in the Netherlands, where both graduated with Masters in Design under the direction of Gijs Bakker, co-founder of Droog Design.
