KURAGE
Brand:
From the collaboration between Italian designer Luca Nichetto and the multidisciplinary team Nendo, founded by Japanese architect Oki Sato, comes a new project with a light, poetic, and handcrafted style: the Kurage table lamp. Kurage means jellyfish in Japanese, and indeed, this lamp resembles a marine creature that dances lightly, swaying in a soft light achieved through the use of high-quality Japanese washi paper. The diffuser rests simply on a transparent structure designed specifically to ensure the absence of shadows. Kurage is made using a unique three-dimensional technique for hand-crafted washi paper. Using mulberry tree fibers, a smooth yet porous paper is obtained that filters the light, creating a relaxed, warm, and captivating atmosphere, capable of seducing both the intellect and the heart. The project is completed by four slender legs in natural ash wood, a white ceramic lamp holder, and an electrical cable covered with a paper fiber sheath.
