About the Item

The bookends are a continuation of Tino Seubert's RCA graduation project The Colour of Air and were commissioned for Ma-tt-er's book launch at London Design Festival 2018. They are inspired by the aesthetics of air filters. Made from milled raw aluminium and rubber, they look like they have harvested air pollution and make it visible as black residue on their aluminium rods, where it is locked away and can't be touched. Aluminium, rubber, particulate matter 12.5cm x 10cm x 15.4cm each (W x L x H) Set of two as seen in photos

Single Spot Corrugation Sconce / Wall Light in Natural Ash and Brushed Aluminium
By Tino Seubert
Located in London, GB
Single sconce spot light made from natural ash veneered plywood (clear coated) and brushed aluminium tube. Technical information: - Comes with dimmable spot light (3.6W, 300 Lumen, 3000° Kelvin, 36 degree beam angle) - Wired for a 230/220V or 110V grid - Can be connected directly to an outlet box or fitted with a cable and regional plug to be plugged into a socket - The sconce can be installed upside down - UL listing can be provided at an additional cost Other color combinations on both the aluminium tube and the wood veneer are available as well as globe bulbs inside the tubes instead of spots and we are always happy to discuss custom solutions. If you need help planning a bigger installation of Corrugation lights, please feel free to get in touch. The linear light and the wall pieces can be cut to length to fit any space and work harmoniously with their surroundings. The sconce also comes in a shorter version - 2 corrugations long. Please find it in our other listing or get in touch for more information. Created in collaboration with Theodora Alfredsdottir, “Corrugation” is a collection of lights inspired by midcentury furniture making, honouring the technique of veneer forming. It consists of a scalable hanging light and wall sconces, which can serve as building blocks to create unique combinations playfully spanning across whole rooms. The collection takes veneer forming as a starting point, a process that requires skilled craftsmanship, which was introduced to the furniture world by design names like Alvar Aalto and the Eames couple, and pairs it with off-the-shelf aluminium tubes. A snug fit where the hard powder-coated metal meets the soft wavy wood...
