From the website:
This beautifully unique lampshade is expertly handcrafted from Denguri paper found locally in the Shikoku region of Japan. The honeycomb paper diffuses the light creating a soft, gentle glow.
It is designed by Kouichi Okamoto, and manufactured by Kyouei Co. Ltd., Japan.
He’s got some rather impressive and unique design concepts- you can see some more information on his designs here.
This is a really neat design, and I like the shipping/packaging of it. I’m wondering what this Denguri paper is?
these are cool
never knew anyone made lamps for it tho…
It’s pretty crazy stuff. I wonder what kind of machine they use to make this…
I always think about how much I could automate my tessellation processes, to avoid the tedious repetitive handwork!
hahaha
yeah that is sooooooooooooo true…
hehehe
Man that is cool. How long did it take to make the lamp?
Thanks,
Mike
