England-based designer Zak Stratfold<\/a><\/strong> has created the Apsis Lamp<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

\"Apsis<\/p>\n

This brief - set by Belgian wood bending experts G. DesMet - asked me to design a product using readily available laminated components from their extensive product catalogue; a refreshing inversion of the typical mantra \u2018form follows function\u2019 Zak Stratfold<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"Apsis<\/p>\n

Apsis is based on the circle's most fundamental quality - rotational symmetry. The laminated beech wood body revolves freely around a limestone trey base, without the need for the complicated mechanisms commonly associated with adjustable lamps.<\/p>\n

\"Apsis<\/p>\n

In placing the bottom ring over the circular stone base, a basic bearing is created, allowing the lamp to endlessly rotate. The cable and LED components are hidden within the body and head, creating a clean, uninterrupted aesthetic that emphasises the lamp's simple geometry.<\/p>\n

\"Apsis<\/p>\n

Items within the trey are orbited and illuminated by the lamp head, which in turn pivots through a range of 180 degrees, the light waxing and waning as it is cast around the room.<\/p>\n
