Semi-precious metals pressed, spun and brazed into complex double‑walled shades, Void is the result of a challenge to create a luminous pendant that mysteriously conceals its light source.
"This is my ULO – Unidentified Lighting Object. It illuminates, but you can't really tell where the light is coming from." Tom Dixon
When treated, base metals can be transformed into extraordinary semi-precious objects from hanging pendants to surface lights.
For example, the process of creating Void is complex. Cut from a sheet of pure metal, each light is pressed and spun, then brazed at the end to form a double-walled shade. The high-shine reflectivity achieved with lathing, polishing and caring for base metals is a bold finish that carries across Void.
Combined with futuristic forms, and illuminated with ethereal luminosity, base metals take on much higher aspirations.
