Description
'Wood Lamp' is an art object / table lamp by the celebrated Brazilian design duo, Fernando and Humberto Campana which exemplifies their philosophy of "transforming the everyday into the extraordinary". The work is composed of a solid teak and stainless steel structure allowing the teak.lampshade to be adjusted in several positions with the wires hidden by a tube. Made of thin strips of teak, in the case of this lamp the intention of the designers, who are sensitive to environmental problems, is for the lamp to rise up like a tree, as symbol of the need to reinstate the Amazon forests. The possibility of changing the angle of the lampshade and the regular texture offer a variety of lighting options and graphic play on shadows, similar to the sun poking through the branches. The lamp is suitable also for outdoor use. Only a small edition was produced and this object is rare and out of production.
Brothers, Fernando (born 1961) and Humberto (born 1953) founded Estudio Campana in 1983 and quickly established their voice in the contemporary design world for their use of untraditional materials. Exploring ideas of transformation and reinvention, the Campanas create intriguing forms using scraps of cloth and wood, plastic tubing, wires and stuffed animals. The Campanas have worked with a number of manufacturers including Alessi, Baccarat, Edra, Lacoste, Louis Vuitton, Magis and Venini, to name a few. In 2008 the brothers won Designer of the Year in Miami, in 2013 they were listed among the top 100 most influential Brazilian personalities by Forbes magazine and in 2014 Wallpaper* listed them among the top 100 major players in design. Special editions pieces by the Campanas can be found in the permanent collections of museums around the world including the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and Musée Les Arts Décoratifs, Paris and the Museum of Modern Art in São Paulo.
