Accretion Lamp by Kalin Asenov

Sunrise and sunset:  these rare moments of peace and aesthetic enjoyment are indiscriminately available to everyone. The mystical zodiacal light, which occurs at the beginning and at end of the day in spring and autumn, can often be a source of inspiration. After having observed this unusual natural phenomenon, furniture and lighting designer Kalin Asenov, made a sculptural lamp named ''Accretion''.

As its name would suggest, this piece looks like an oversized ring made of the walnut wood for the most part. That being said, its inner side is filled with the gold copper wires, which represent the idea of interconnection, and the bright LEDs whose positions correspond to the stars of the zodiacal constellation.

Despite the attractive combination of materials, the appropriate dimensions of this lamp (L 15” | H 15” | W 5”) keep it under control and an extraordinary experience just by watching this luxurious (with a $3200 price tag) example of industrial design is being created.
