DESCRIPTION

A variety of non-domestic, yet familiar and functional forms of lighting inspired Sylvain Willenz’s design - Torch Light, owes elements of its form to the typical torch and car headlight. PVC dipped polymer gives a tactile finish, referencing the handheld nature of a torch, whilst light shines through a clear, diamond textured polycarbonate diffuser (akin to the textured glass of a car headlight) creating an ambient light. The Torch Light is available as a table and suspension light and as a grouped suspension light of 10 or 20.

DESIGNER

Willenz is one of Belgium’s leading young designers. After graduating from the Royal College of Art in 2003 and having lived in the UK for seven years, Willenz established his own studio in Brussels in 2004. Willenz’s first collections of work saw him experimenting with natural rubber, since that time he has explored the qualities of new materials and new techniques. Similarly, Willenz’s work is often inspired by archetypal objects and the simplicity with which they are associated. Willenz will seek to interpret these forms and qualities in new designs. Winner of Interieur Kortrijk awards in 2002 and nominated Brussels’ Most Promising Designer in 2005.
