The New Old Light

Following the design language of traditional Chinese paper lanterns, The New Old Light combines western industrial style with Asian aesthetics. In order to achieve different lighting effects, the lower part, made of paper, can be pulled down or completely concealed in the metal lampshade. The contour of the pendant luminaire changes accordingly, creating a smooth transition from a spotlight to a soft lighting effect.

 

Winner of the 2014 Red Dot award, The New Old Light follows an unconventional design idea and creates appealing lighting effects by means of its surprising qualities.
