The project wants to investigate the double life of a lighting equipment: during the day, when the leading actor is a thin sheet of ‘wood’ and during the night, when the emotion of the light combined with its shadow create the real atmosphere.

 

The wood support and the cuts made on its nature - the veins - discover the identity of the item, designing the light.

 

The fluorescent tube-lighting system is the source, while the wood veneering is the soul of an ancient icon: the lantern.
