cristián mohaded kicks off the STRESS collection by argentinean studio inconcrete with the ‘andes’ lamps. the lights are an experimentation with the physical qualities of light-concrete. by creating a tension between volume and morphology, the object takes on a weightlessness that allows the unwavering material to take on different roles in the domestic space. ‘andes’ are influenced by membrane and shell structures, which possess innate qualities that are translated into the lamps’ stretched, fluid materiality. STRESS collection is still in conceptual phases, and will eventually feature variations of ‘andes’, as well as tables, benches, and other accessories all produced in light-weight concrete by inconcrete.
