Counterweight keeps the shade in perfect balance in any position. This way the lampshade can be rotated as far as +90° to -90° and rotated around its vertical axis by >360°.
You definitely haven’t seen other reading lamps do that!
L/W/H: 24 / 24 / 34 CM
MATERIALS: aluminum
FINISH: black powder coating
LIGHT SOURCE: Led 8W / CRI90 / 3000K (white)
Extra attention was put into ease of lamp assembly and disassembly. This may seem as very mundane feature, but in fact many nowday products have their parts glued and assembled in a way that doesn’t allow effective repairing. We wanted to change that and make repairing effective once again.
Pendulum lamp can be used in domestic and public environments.
LED light source stays hidden to the eye, no matter the position the lamp is in. The light is indirectly scattered via the lampshade which dramatically reduces the glare and makes it easy on the eyes.

Gravità is an acoustic chandelier that draws the shape from archetypal hemispheric volume of an archaic chandelier. The volume is reduced to a semicircular disc that is then multiplied across the height of the object.
Each panel can be rotated separately thus allowing the user to adjust it to his acoustic, lighting and aesthetic needs. Subtle play of geometrical shapes gives the design a very dynamic and playful character.
L/W/H: 20 / 100 / 200 CM
MATERIALS: PET felt, aluminium, glass
Semicircular panels are made out of thermoformed felt, sourced from recycled PET plastics most commonly used as plastic bottles.
There are 267 PET 0.5L bottles inside one Gravità chandelier.
Great acoustic properties of the felt material make the rotating panels a highly sound absorptive element. Making it ideal for high ceilings, concrete and glass spaces that tend to have bad acoustics.
It’s a huge challenge to design a new typology of a table task lamp, and not to follow many existing ones that have developed during its long history. Compression and tension springs, pressure and friction, counterweights, pneumatic arms, are just a few of them and their function is to make the lamp adjustable and balanced. PLUSminus lamp is using a not yet seen solution that’s small in size, easy to manufacture and assemble, and
enables a perfectly smooth motion for the user. It’s engineered from ground up!
L/W/H: 80 / 20 / 70 CM
MATERIALS: aluminium, steel, stone
PLUSminus lamp moves like no other lamp does. Its position is adjusted only by a soft finger’s touch, all thanks
to the unique sliding mechanism. As soon as the user stops applying the pressure, the lamp locks in instantly,
giving the impression of levitation.
The lamp offers user a complete freedom of adjusting it into the desired position.
It does not use springs, weights or any other conventional methods common in modern day task lamps.
It slides horizontally and vertically, and it rotates around two axes.
Thanks to its feather-light minimalistic design and thin profiles, the lamp is very unobtrusive and almost invisible.
With its generous dimensions it reaches well across the working area of an office table, enabling variety of uses.
Alone in Kyoto is a stool, it’s a wooden sculpture you can sit on. It’s also a statement and a conversation starter.
It was conceived back in 2006 when Kyoto Protocol was rejected by some of the the biggest air-polluting countries in the world. Alone in Kyoto stool is an exercise of trying to convey the feelings of loneliness and failed struggle in reaching a common goal.
Back then a statement was expected, today action is required!
TYPE: STOOL
L/W/H: 80 / 65 / 55 CM
MATERIAL: SLOVENIAN OAK
FINISH: NATURAL BEE WAX
A stool designed based on the intersections of levels that breathe life into a sculptural and dynamic volume, with a snapping, restless profile, into something that’s poised between origami that becomes furniture and the Czech Cubist Pavel Janák at his best; proof that you can always borrow from the best stories and traditions without feeling their weight, actually achieving amazing projects with respect to today’s customs.
