Aloe Small Elio Lamp by Soft-Geometry

About the Item

Aloe small Elio lamp by Soft-geometry Materials: Voice-controlled smart lamp, hand-cast in textured resin Dimensions: 11” x 7” x 9” H Voice-controlled smart lamp Inspired by an informal photo series documenting the play of light on glass, water, skin, and dust, Elio lamps are stacks of translucent, tubular, cast resin that mimic interactions of natural light on uneven transparencies. The lamps look to recreate a diffused glow using frosted sugar jellies as a visual reference and It’s singular bend is a small ode to Eileen Grey’s Bibendum lounge. Soft-geometry is an Indian design studio creating collectible furniture and home objects around a central theme of softness. Inspired by the rich, diverse object culture and craft-traditions of India, their objects are predominantly hand-made, bridging traditional and modern ways of making and seeing. Based in Kochi, India. "Softness is a degree, almost anything can be plotted along a soft-hard axis. There are soft materials - soft velvet, fur, felt, hair, wool and any others that are soft to touch. There are visual associations - pastel colors, billowy clouds, things without edges and the soft light of dawn or dusk. There are soft sounds - whispers, melodies, the rustle of leaves; and soft scents - the smell of rain, wet ground or faint perfume. More interestingly still, softness can be abstract - it is malleability, a willingness to learn or change, fluidity, humility, empathy, slowness, childlike innocence or imperfection."
