'light sock' by diller scofidio + renfro



the new york based architecture studio diller scofidio + renfro will be presenting their 'light sock' as part of the
swarovski crystal palace exhibition at this year's design miami 07. it will be on show at the moore building from december
7-9, 2007 as part of the miami based festival. the studio has deconstructed the traditional chandelier, creating a
mesh sock filled with hundreds of swarovski crystals. the light buried in the crystals illuminates them to create
a single glowing orb. the installation will feature 48 'light socks' installed in a pitch black room, creating a landscape
of lighting.
designboom featured the 'light sock' when it was unveiled at milan design week 2007 and also wrote about the
'the blur building' by diller scofidio + renfro in 2002.
