Raiz lighting
Ames, 2021
An elegant and minimalist lighting collection for the Colombian/German company Ames, made in Colombia using local materials, skills and techniques. The lights come in four typologies: table top, floor standing and pendants in two sizes. They all feature a handmade, cone-shaped ceramic shade with a glazed inside that creates warm, gentle light. The upper side of the shade can be specified in five different colours, while the inner glaze can be either white or black. The lights are finished with a handwoven light fixture that uses the same weaving technique as panama hats and a textile cable available in three colours.
