Ikebana LED Light by Peter Stathis
Peter Stathis, industrial designer and principal at Virtual Studio in San Francisco has created the Ikebana Flat-Panel LED light.
“Ikebana is a traditional art of Japan, practiced for more than 600 years, and stems from the essential relationship of man and nature. It recreates nature on a reduced scale, and finds its basis in the beauty and meaning flowers have for man.
Ikebana is also a contemporary light, merging poetics with technology, decoration with function, and aesthetics with ideology, in creating a perceived and highly symbolic beauty – a neo–nature for today’s solid-state world.
As in the traditional art form, the design draws visual emphasis to the shape, line and form of the “flowers” arrangement; through negative space, asymmetry and minimalist form. When combined with leading edge LED technology, Ikebana is decor – and more.”
