Polished Aluminium Table Lamp, Limited Edition of 10 - Oblago Raphael Kadid

About the Item

Oblago is a table lamp made of five massive aluminum elements. The lamp is inspired by archaic architecture and neo-futurist concepts. Its design is the result of a research on ellipsoid geometries, shapes nearly impossible to achieve by hand, but where contemporary machining techniques have no difficulties. The columns are made by turning, whereas the body of the lamp is made by the carving of a single block to its limits. At the tangent between inner and outer shells, only 1mm wall thickness remains. To provide stability, the four massive columns are expanding their geometries outside the body’s perimeter, allowing a wider ground contact. The arrangement of the columns and the lamp’s proportions are purposely ambiguous. While t he ratio between columns and body relates to the timeless architecture of the Dolmens, their position refers to the figure of a trotting horse, bringing motion to the composition, and a certain sense of animality. The name Oblago is a homage to the american industrial designer and concept artist Syd Mead, and his book Oblagon, published in 1996.
