Designed by Katharina Eisenkoeck, the ‘Nomadic’ lamps
are inspired by early 20th century travel items such as leather flasks,
suitcases and armory. These lamps are modern lanterns that can be
carried around and used in a variety of different positions. The lamps’
angled leather handles are made using ‘Cuir Bouilli’ – an ancient method
of boiling and shaping leather, and it develops its own unique
character, becoming more personal to the user. Made from cast concrete,
the three lamps
are cordless and can be recharged via an induction charging system
built in to an accompanying shelf. The charging system and the light
source were developed in collaboration with the Austrian LED research
company Lumitech. The light itself can simply be switched on and off
through a touch sensor. Genius!
