Winter got you down? It's cold and gloomy, the sun sets early and all you need is some extra light in your life. What if that light was coming from a beautiful pendant, or a georgous chandelier? It would make you feel a lot better right? Good thing Koo is here to help you find the perfect glimmer of light that will fit any price and style! This week we have focused our attention on a brighter subject, lighting! We have curated some of the most beautiful and daring pieces you can put in your home.
Roost Pendants by Birch & Willow
This hand-made pendant is made with hand hammered copper coil. Twigs, grapevines, bittersweet vines, hand-dyed basket weaving reed all make up this beautiful glowing piece of art.
Silva by Cerno Group
Cerno collaborated with fashion designer Jesse Kamm on a set of limited edition shades for their Silva lamps. They are fun and stylish and a must see!
Weber by David Tonnesen
This oxidized and blackened steel pendant will be the centerpiece of any home. David Tonnesen works so delecately and loveingly with his pieces and the craftsmanship really shows!
Orb (Tamago Light) by Hiro Odaira
This is a revolutionary three dimensional Washi parchment lamp without any frames or supports. The way it glows, is magical. This lamp would be a breathtaking accent piece in any space.
Infilio by Marco Goffi
The lamp wants to investigate the double life of a lighting equipment: during the day, when the leading actor is a thin sheet of ‘wood’ and during the night, when the suggestion of the light combined with its shadows create the real atmosphere. The wood support and the cuts made on its nature - the veins – permit to discover the real attitude of the item becoming a code and designing the light. The LED lighting system is the source, the transparent PMMA cylinder is the core of the light, the wood veneering is the soul of an icon: the lantern.
Triple-Rail Chandelier by Michael HcHale
The Triple-Rail Chandelier is undoubtedly the most ambitious McHale Chandelier to date.
Its design is both simple – three rails and a crossbar – and richly complex. The largest of all McHale Chandeliers, the Triple-Rail can be made from 42” up to 78” long (width is 22”).
The Triple-Rail takes on different characteristics at different angles and at different times during the day.
Its simultaneous displays of simplicity and opulence ensure that the Triple-Rail is destined to become a design classic of the early 21st Century.
No. 37 by Peter Bynum
The multi-panel paintings allow light to filter through front to back and vice versa, with shadowy forms appearing even in the areas where paint blocks the light. These three-dimensional paintings full of color and light are such that one cannot discern what comes first in the process; there appears to be a seamless flow. They embody the concept of the evanescent world of fleeting beauty called ukiyo in Japanese art, translated as “floating world.” Yet, the visual impact of the paintings— the physical depth and actual light passing through the painted surface— yields something new. Bynum was taking painting, which has traditionally involved adding layers of paint to articulate the opaque surface of a canvas, in a new direction.
