Elio is a pursuit of soft light, of recreating in physical form the soft, iridescent glow of light diffusing through uneven transparencies. 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 create a soft glow using frosted sugar jellies as a visual reference and Its singular bend is a small ode to Eileen Grey’s Bibendum lounge.
