SÖHKA Lamp - Malet Thibaut



The SÖHKA Lamp is the latest creation from French designer Malet Thibaut (previously). The light is composed of five wooden pieces and 60 rubber bands that can be assembled in practically unlimited configurations to create different lighting patterns for maximum geometric shadow fun.  


‘Every time I start a new project, I try to work with one or two materials, first, to highlight the object in his natural aspect and also to think about the recycling options in the future. This is why I avoid the use of industrials screws and nails during the construction, replacing them with wood solutions. This process helps the designs to fit my ecological expectations.’


Similar to Thibaut’s previous work, the lamp consists of untreated natural woods, and an avoidance of inductrail fixings. With no screws or any other holding element, the rigidity is retains with the pressure of elastics. Each element is completely dissociated, to optimize its recycling and is presented in  recycled cardboard packaging.



The SÖHKA Lamp will be available for purchase via his website in the near future.
