CONCEPT STATEMENT:

Iron lamp is a local reinterpretation of a classic street lamp imported and massively sold in Tunisia.

The aim is to manufacture a monolithic lamp through the assembly of parts of the same material, involving both manual and industrial work.

The idea is to ennoble the perforated steel sheet: a material infinitely recyclable, precise and translucent but banalized in Tunisia.

The light is diffused through several layers of the perforated sheet, providing maximum visual comfort.

From this design, I developed a whole collection by playing with scale, colors and the dissociation of basic shapes. It included a table lamp, a pendant lamp and candleholders.

PROJECT SPECS:

Iron lamp is composed of two overlapping parts :

- The lower part (H: 114cm, L: 30 cm) is composed of five pieces forming a parallelepiped closed from above acting as a support for the electric socket.

- The upper part (D: 60cm; H: 32cm) is composed of eight pieces forming a geometrical half cylinder.

All is finished in white epoxy. White electric cable with foot switch, equipped with a 14W E27 2700K bulb.
