'carbon 451 lamp'

new-york based treluce design studio, headed by marcus tremonto, has created a body of new work,
which was on show at object rotterdam 2010.


'carbon 451 lamp'

when originally asked by the apartment gallery owner patrick brillet to design a piece
out of carbon fiber, tremonto decided to celebrate the material's physical properties -
strength and lightness. the complexity of curves and required thinness could not be duplicated
with any other material (while still maintaining its ability to self-support itself).

2 to 3mm thick.
