Frame: Beech

Beech is domestic wood. It grows in the woods around Bad Münder, where this light is manufactured. Carefully carved, waxed and oiled, it shows its lasting beauty.

BACKGROUND OF THIS LAMP SERIES

Wood as material

The use of natural materials and design appropriate to these materials are the principles behind this collection.

These lamp designs bring out the natural beauty of solid wood in a subtle way. Although wood lends itself perfectly to the design of lighting for interiors, it is also – due to the challenge of limited processing possibilities – a great challenge.

Every piece is unique

Wood is a product of time. The time a tree needs to grow. The years of maturing and drying. The time it takes to process the wood and finally the time it serves man.

Normally, wooden objects become more and more beautiful during years of use. Wood is an ‘open’ material - it takes in and it gives off. Wood is a living, working substance. Each piece is unique and variations in the surface structure cannot be avoided. But of course therein lies the genuine charm of natural wood.

Ecological

We only use wood from controlled cultivation areas. These are primarily forests of the northern hemisphere, but also from other regions – the decisive factor is ecologically and socially sensible harvest of wood.

To a great extent, we refrain from using varnish in favour of vegetable oils and natural waxes that preserve the natural beauty of open-pored wood.

Other materials such as aluminum, slate, or steel harmonize well with wood and offer possibilities for new creations.
