Present at the Clerkenwell 2013, Magnus Pettersen Studio was in the center of attention with this project. The lamps look very simple and friendly, yet luxurious. The colour of the glass makes them even more beautiful.

Leimu

Leimu is a table lamp which has a glass lampshade which sits on a concrete base. The glass is tinted in a copper colour to produce a warm, atmospheric light and the concrete is made slightly darker to make it seem softer. The design is inspired by architecture, and wanting to bring a crude and cold material like concrete into an interior setting. The fragile glass and tough concrete is an unnatural pair, but it’s the contrast of the two materials which makes the design work.

Here are some other objects designed by Magnus Petterson Studio:

Concrete Desk Set

The Concrete Desk Set is made from concrete, a material normally associated with the construction industry, but in this case used to create unique desk accessories for the home or office.
The set consist of a tape dispenser, a pen pot and a tray.

Locker

Locker is a series of storage furniture consisting of a bedside table, a credenza, a sideboard and a chest of drawers. The pieces are made from blackened ash and anodized aluminium.
The furniture is a contemporary fusion of industrial metal lockers, details from decadent antique furniture and mid-century proportions. The fusion creates four pieces of industrial luxury.
