FLAMES pendant lamp. 2023 LIT Lighting Design Awards Honorable Mention.
FLAMES pendant lamp design draws inspiration from the history of onion dome shapes.
Onion domes were widely used in religious buildings in Europe and Asia starting from the 13th century and are mainly attributed to Christian culture. Its origins in architecture are still being explored and historians are not certain of the motive for the shape. One of the theories suggests that the shape resembled a candle flame and had a special spiritual meaning. Flames lamp highlights this spiritual meaning and gives a new light to this ancient architectural form.
