The ‘Ori’ lamp is reborn with a motif from the 1930’s icon, the Anglepoise lamp made of steel and sheet metal, and the rice lamps popularized in Sweden in the 1970’s.
Like Flos’s Gatto lamp, the Ori lamp is also made of paper and steel frame, making it look like a fairy taking shape in the mist as a small sculpture.
DESIGNER BIO
Alexander Lervik is one of Scandinavia’s foremost designers with several products in the permanent collections at the National Museum in Oslo and the National Museum in Stockholm. He works with leading Scandinavian brands such as Designhouse Stockholm, Adea, Noon, Zero and Orrefors/kosta Boda. Internationally, he has collaborated with, among others, Moroso in Italy.
In 2007, he scanned his own brain and 3d printed it into the MYBRAIN lamp in a limited edition, which is described by several auction houses as the first signature object in Scandinavia for 3D print technology. Among his most famous products are the Brighthandle door handle that communicates with colored light and the light swing sense.
Alexander Lervik’s design is timeless Scandinavian with a twist – often containing an innovation and often with new areas of use. Alexander has had solo exhibitions at the National Museum in Stockholm, Sven Harry’s Art Museum in Stockholm and a retrospective exhibition at the Kulturhuset in Stockholm in 2018.
