The Serpentine Light brings the best of playfulness and lighting design together in two different sizes. Sofia Lagerkvist and Anna Lindgren, from Swedish design studio Front, came up with the idea for the Serpentine Light when playing with a piece of paper; discovering the limits of the different shapes it could adopt.
TWO SIZES
The Serpentine Light is available in two sizes: 46x60x46 cm and 68x68x78 cm. It's important to have sizing options, so that you can fill and light up your space perfectly, enhancing your room's value even more. Get creative by hanging this airy suspension lamp in clusters or use Serpentine Light Large 8 to make statement in a room. Whatever your space, the Serpentine family can elevate it with its continuously moving design.
Inspiration can be found anywhere
Who would have thought that a simple piece of paper could bring about so much? The Aha! moment for Front came from playing with the tension of the paper, discovering what made the surface flow naturally; without losing the continuous flow. They realised that the twisting was made easier when using an S-shape. Combining multiple S-shapes made the shape look like a twisting and turning road. Bending the shape created cones or waves. The possibilities seemed endless.
A fun and curious focal point
The Serpentine Light comprises four S-shapes, made from a non-woven fabric, twisted into cones and fashioned together to create an intricate shape that keeps you guessing. The dark lines create the effect of an endless upwards spiral, while the translucent material scatters and diffuses the light evenly throughout a space.
The Serpentine Light is a playful design created with elaborate twists and turns, that keeps intriguing with its illusion of perpetual movement.
