yu jordy fu: cloud walk paper chandelier

designer yu jordy fu developed 'cloud walk', a nine meter long horizontal white chandelier
made from recycled paper for 100% design london. paper-cutting is a unique art form
which chinese women used as a graceful and intricate media to record their lives
and adorn their homes. yu jordy fu has used the ancient technique as means to break away
from the two dimensional realm and create a dreamlike landscape. the chandelier can be
purchased in sections and reinstalled for various residential or commercial uses.

‘I don’t see the chandelier as an object but a space. my passion is to create sensational
spaces for people; ‘cloud walk’ celebrates the spatial relationship between people
and the city of london - the existing, proposed and imaginary london.’
- YJF
