Antler
|
|
| |
Designed by: Volker Haug
Why we love it: Like
all of Volker’s lights, this is really great fun. Toying with the idea
of antlers, it’s got an industrial feel and is far from traditional!

Bacterioptica
|
| | Designed by: MADLAB
Why we love it: This
chandelier would be a pretty big commitment above your dining table,
but it sure does have impact. Each light is actually a petri dish, in
which you can grow bacteria (a little creepy no?), connected with rods
and fibre optic cables.

Taraxacum 88 Suspension
|
| | Designed by: Achille Castiglioni for Flos
Why we love it: Looking
like a big ball of bubble wrap, this chandelier almost seems inverted,
with the fragile glass on the outside and 20-sided polished aluminium
core.

Hope
|
| |
Designed by: Francisco Gomez Paz and Paolo Rizzatto for Luceplan
Why we love it: This
Chandelier is made up of thin polycarbonate Fresnel lenses. There’s
some serious science behind this light, with the material “imprinted with microprisims” to create a “dioptric effect” that mimics glass. A modern take on the traditional chandelier.

Tide
|
| | Designed by: Stuart Haygarth
Why we love it: This
collection of colourful objects creates a playful, yet elegant
expression of ‘man-made debris’ that’s at the core of Haygarth’s work.
Love the re-use.

Branching Bubble
|
| | Designed by: Lindsey Adelman Studio
Why we love it: Like
a big stick insect, the frame of this chandelier (in oil-rubbed bronze)
is very organic, with clear blown ‘bubbles’ – two with gold foil. They
can be made to order and customised.

White
|
| | Designed by: Winnie Liu
Why we love it:
Another chandelier using found objects, this light by jeweller Winnie
Liu features quite a macabre collection of toys and other objects all in
white. Maybe not everyone’s cup of tea, but definitely worth a mention.

85 Lamps
|
 | |
Designed by: Rody Graumans
Why we love it:
The excitement of this chandelier comes from the simplicity of its
identical components. The 85 hanging bulbs would, alone, seem so common
and everyday, yet they’re extravagant and almost absurd when bunched
together.
