GRAMMOLUCE, design by Min Dong and Habits Design for Martinelli Luce
What would happen if light had weight? The combination of sensorial, aesthetic, and technological elements in Grammoluce, the table lamp, transforms daily interaction with light through this reflection. Grammoluce is featured by the upper elastic fabric in Lycra® that covers the borosilicate glass structure, which deformed with glass spheres positioned on it, acts as a switch and dimmer for the lamp. An LED source with dynamic white light intensity and tone changes depending on the number and weight of spheres placed on the fabric. Light weights make the lighting more delicate and warmer. Adding spheres enhances its strength and coldness. The elastic fabric thus creates an intuitive link between light and weight.
“The idea is to connect two seemingly independent concepts through the experience of use and the transformation of form, giving life to a unique aesthetic and a poetic experience” (Ming Dong).
Grammoluce is the third product born from the collaboration between Habits Design and Martinelli Luce, completing a trilogy of projects on the theme of light and gestural interaction that found expression with the creation of the Elastica “floor/ceiling” lamp and with Metrica.
