cláudio cigarro: structend light


'structend' lamp pendant version by cláudio cigarro

created by portuguese designer cláudio cigarro, 'structend' is a light that draws on the formation of tents,
especially their appearance at night, which when illuminated make the interior structure visible due to shadows
caused by inner light. the design consists of a geodesic-esque form, internal lighting fixture and nylon skin.
the textile exterior adapts to the shape of the light and is easily removable for replacement and cleaning.
the interior lighting element has a color coating, heightening the visual experience to the viewer.
