british architect john pawson in collaboration with salvatori and lighting specialists
KKDC exhibited at the interni think tank exhibition, milan.

the installation entitled ‘house of stone’ was a simple, house shaped architectural
structure made from recycled stone- consisting of 99% stone scrap and just 1%
natural resin to act as a bonding agent.

the linear MoMo LED light source produced by lighting company KKDC has no
visible lighting structure. it is carefully concealed providing a continuous linear
lighting source throughout the space. the consistent 2800k colour temperature is
used to evenly light and emphasize the horizontal and vertical planes of the structure,
while highlighting the texture of the stone material and minimal architectural form.
the linear MoMo LED lights offer low energy consumption making it an environmentally
friendly product.
