Summumstudio, the product and interior design and branding studio, has designed a new lighting system called Woodstraps for the prestigious lighting company LZF Lamps.
Woodstraps is a modular lighting system that generates layers of light thanks to its delicate strips of overlapping pressed wood. The handcrafted flexible strips of wood can be adjusted, using straps to open or close them, controlling the intensity of the light that is released from the middle of it.
This innovative system, conspicuous for its simple abstract design, is more than just a light — it is an adaptable system whose shape and type of lighting can be customized, depending on the position of the straps that open or close the wood strips. Because of its versatile design, it can be suspended or used as a ceiling or wall light.
This combination of wood strips and light of an adjustable intensity helps to ensure a warm welcoming feel, perfect for creating backdrops of differing kinds. Another singularity is the fact that when the light is turned off, the fixture acts as a sculpture.
Woodstraps stands out for its delicate, evocative design, featuring clear-cut lines and simple shapes. It can be used in a multitude of different backdrops, enhancing them with its gentle light. Indeed, it is a prime exponent of contemporary design work based on a perfect blend of craftsmanship, ingenuity, light and nature.
Woodstraps is also a handcrafted product, made with sheets of FSC-certified timber (Forest Stewardship Council), guaranteeing the wood’s provenance from responsibly managed forests and its sustainability and eco-friendliness.
