History of the product
Natural wood veneer is an industrial process that is used in the furniture industry. It saves resources and reduces production costs by looking a lot like the visual appearance of solid wood furniture. The application of veneers on inexpensive planks confers some important characteristics with a visual result of the best possible: the symmetry between the leaves and the direction of the grain of the wood. With this lamp, Luis sought new perspectives on this material by reusing them to create a new product.
The volume of this piece is the result of the addition of several layers of veneers. In these products, the most common wood appears relevant as an exotic, revealing a color variation between them. The result is quite graphic with each layer highlighted according to the color of the facets. The results of the table lamp form the intersection of two volumes: the vertical base made with Portuguese limestone and a horizontal cylinder, displaying all the different wood veneers.
