Hotai I

Creator: Sten Studio
Offered by: Sten Studio

Description
"Culture and nature in Japanese design have a complementary relationship, to the point of a homology. Precisely, Hotai, the name of this lamp, means “complement”, a singular structure in which three elements: wood, quartz, and light coincide to create an incomplete shape that is nonetheless aesthetically pleasing. The principle of fukinsei, or unbalance, alludes to the absence of symmetry in the natural world. Here the absolute formal precision that every element has, be in it the curve of the wood, the mineral sphere or the artificial projection of light, would not exist. The principle of kanso, or simplicity, is seen in the minimalistic aesthetic of the two geometric figures that shape the lamp.
Moreover the principle of shizen, or naturalness, makes reference to its materials: yugen, or deepness, alludes the transparency of the clear quartz which allows the viewer to see its inner inclusions. Ultimately seijaku, or stillness, making reference to an introspective nature and the calm that is produced by the lamp through the balance in its elements."

Thanks to it, all pieces are unique, given the characteristics proper to each of the stones. The studio is born from the passion for geology and industrial design, which has resulted in the experimentation with rock crystals that are yet to be explored in the world of decoration.
