Flux and 20 inch

Flux is the name of a floor lamp/light sculpture that occupies the border land between practical object and sculptural expression. The lamp consists of 136 white high-gloss modules that are assembled into a single unit. The individual elements are cut using laser technology, and then the finished product is assembled by hand. The lamp design reflects a desire to make a lamp that is constructed from a large number of modules while still maintaining a very simple expression. His fascination with mathematical formulas and shapes – in this case hexagons – provides an additional element in the basis of the product. The lamp holds many possibilities in its construction, which with few limitations forms the basis for a vast number of mathematical structures.

20 Inch is a pendant lamp designed around a desire for simplicity. The result is a time-less and simple lamp with an airy and floating expression. The lamp has a strong personality with a calm and innovative light. 20 Inch consists of 60 elliptical lamp shades, each angled to avoid reducing the light intensity. The design also ensures that the user never looks directly at the light source itself. Each lamp shade has a click system that locks the lamp shade onto the acrylic rings. This lets the lamp appear airy and floating in all its simplicity.

Jonas Klein

b. 1973, Danish furniture designer

Jonas Klein is a self-taught furniture designer. He has previously participated in Crafts Collection 13 and has exhibited in several venues around the world, including DMY in Berlin in 2009 and 2010 and Blickfang in Vienna, also in 2009 and 2010. In 2011 he took part in TENT during the London Design Week. To Jonas Klein, simplicity and function are the main features in most of his design work. His work involves a mix of hand-drawings, computer drawings, models and prototypes. Jonas Klein finds inspiration in a variety of sources, for example a shape, a silhouette or a component part of an object. For example, a joint connecting two pieces of wood may provide the inspiration for something new that has nothing to do with that particular joint. His design is characterised by simplicity in idiom and colour.
