julian mayor: intersect task light


side views


london-based designer julian mayor has released 'intersect', a limited edition task light
whose form is based on computer graphic simulations of explosions. 

mayor explains, 'I was interested in the way the computer takes a surface
and divides it in a dynamic way to create the illusion of momentum'.

crafted from three pieces of tinted acrylic the light slots together
without any additional fasteners and uses a flat panel LED matrix as the light source.

'intersect' along with the previously released frame light, angle chair and may stool
will be a part of the design auction at pierre berge in brussels on december 16, 2011.
