DESIGN FOR LUXURY & CRAFTSMANSHIP

Julianna Probst – Light Standard

by Julianna Probst

Light Standard continues the designer's ongoing exploration of craft within utilitarian systems. The design's key elements — poeticism, solitude, protection — were born from extensive study of the often-overlooked street lamp. The design process was one of observation and collection as much as creation. Thin cables nestled within a carbon fiber tube allows gravity to bend the pole in a familiar yet unexpected way. A torsion spring transforms the post lamp into a reading lamp with a playful and delicate gesture. Light Standard balances precision and craftsmanship with spontaneity.
