'The magic of paper transforms cool electricity back into the eternal light of the sun.'
This quote and the general work of the American-Japanese artist Isamu Noguchi are exceptionally complex. His interest was not only in material and form, but also in spatial impact, and was intended to serve a practical as well as social function. Noguchi's sculptural style exerted a lasting influence on the formal language of organic design in the 1950s. In 1951, for example, the designer created the 'Akari Light Sculptures' - sculptures of luminous weightlessness. The Japanese word akari means brightness and light, but also lightness.
Each lamp is elaborately and devotedly handmade in Japan from washi paper. The floor lamp Akari UF4-33N resembles a delicate tower in which the light source can spread warmly and evenly. With its three feet of painted steel wire, it lightly balances its almost non-existent weight. Natural and confident - an ideal addition to the living room or office.
