mobile series by earnest studio from netherlands
designer's own words:
The Mobile Series takes it's inspiration from the kinetic sculptures of Alexander Calder. Each lamp in the family showcases the innovative lightness of the OLED technology by combining a delicate frame with versatile hardware, resulting in dynamic and sculptural, yet highly functional products.
The series comprises a floor, hanging and table lamp. These use 5, 3 and 1 standard OLED panels respectively, in the sizes of 55x53mm, 100x100mm, 140x140mm and 200x50mm.
The lamps are constructed using two types of cylindrical joints, one for the frame, and one for the panels. Each joint is adjustable; the frame can be repositioned within the cylinders to move the lights up or down using balance, while the cylinders themselves rotate, allowing the user to focus the light in endless configurations.
These simple, yet versatile connections allow for great commercial potential. Using materials such as brass, powder coated aluminum and stone, the series is currently aimed at the premium market. However, the simplicity of the design allows it to easily evolve into a series for mass production.
