'delta', a lighting series by new york based designers rich brilliant willing,
juxtaposes industrial shapes against textured fabric and warm, diffuse light.
the collection is on display during new york design week 2011.

the pieces take their form from propulsion systems and rooftype vents, reinterpreting the shapes
in fabric and designed for use with compact fluorescent and other energy efficient bulbs.
the designs also incorporate traditional lampshade-making forms and techniques, such as box pleating.

the shades are produced in black fabric with opaque gold foil liner and white fabric with translucent white liner.
four shapes of pendant lamps join a table and floor lamp in the 2012 collection.
