sliver – Nick Geipel

sliver

Sliver is a luminaire that interprets natural light in a playful and subtle way to create a cozy and relaxing atmosphere. Inspired by the sunlight that shines through the shoji paper doors in Japan, the goal was to recreate this subdued, pleasant light, in combination with an analog dimming function that not only serves a functional purpose, but offers an interesting interaction. As an object in the living area, it not only fulfills a function, but encourages to meditatively perceive the subtle gradations of light and actively create the mood of the room, contrary to digitalized lighting- and homeconcepts that tend to create colder and more anonymous living spaces.
