Luminaire
Meteorite
Meteorite was developed with the aim of finding a new expressive language for luminaires made of blown glass. The idea for Meteorite derived from the fascination for Venetian glass with its uneven, seemingly broken surface. The specially developed glass-blowing and grinding processes are characterised by a double-layer artistic glass diffuser and a frost-covered moulding technique. The depth of the light created in the illuminated object impresses the beholder. This luminaire is part of a series of lights consisting of table, suspension, wall and ceiling versions.
Statement by the Jury
The extraordinary materials of these luminaires achieve an entirely selfcontained style. Their visually fascinating glass surface is eye-catching.
