‘dita’ is the product of french collaborative studio désormeaux/carrette and metylos. the small lamp is heavily influenced by modern day fashion industry. a felt lampshade functions as a hood that ‘dresses’ the simple timber base. in doing so, it mirrors the fashion process of transforming a two-dimensional pattern into a three-dimensional object.
