LabWe see our LAB as a field for exploration, experimenting, testing, and reworking until a new idea or solution naturally emerges. In this process, digital tools and handmade gestures coexist, ensuring that each result carries both innovation and a human touch.
Free from market pressures, our investigations follow curiosity rather than trends, allowing ideas to grow organically. We are especially interested in a social and visual understanding of design — seeing it as a cultural practice that connects people, contexts, and meanings.
Lab Projects
In our lab corner, we experiment and play to find coincidences that help us improve products, and from there, some projects arise, like the following.
01 Attame
Power of luminaire: 9W
Lumens: 250
(CCT): 3000-4000K
Structure Material: Plastic
“The right light in the right place”
ATTAME is a shamelessly analogical proposal that aims to rethink the traditional typologies and uses of luminaires, adapting to new needs and increasingly dynamic and versatile spaces.
Using easily replaceable components and only two plastic parts, ATTAME becomes a technologically durable, playful, and resilient luminaire. Its three-metre cable and creative anchoring solutions invite interaction and reinterpretation, connecting the object to its user and encouraging new ways of use.
Context
Battery-powered lamps offer convenience, but their design ignores repair and recycling. When the battery dies, the lamp does too.
Technic info
We want the product to have a long relationship with the user, so we propose:
No batteryWe need to have a good luminous output and not depend on the life cycle of a battery.
Standard
componentsUse of replaceable light sources such as G9, E27/E14 LED solutions allow us to have a product that will not become technically obsolete.
02 Candle
Structure: Wax, CoB LED, screws, cable
Power of luminaire: 12W
duration: 4-12h
During the power outage of 2025, which left us a full day without electricity, we reflected on our dependence on energy and how carelessly we often consume it, forgetting the resources behind it. That day, we used candles — a simple act that made material consumption visible as the wax melted away
From this reflection, we created an experiment: placing a small LED on top of a candle to observe the melting process — a quiet gesture that reveals the material traces of energy use and the fragility of our everyday light.
Context
To reveal the value of our resources and the fragility of the systems that sustain us.
Technic info
We use a 12W CoB LED connected directly to the AC power line and a red wax candle.
Evidence
Only when the power goes out do we see how fragile our systems are. Candle challenges our routine consumption, using a simple light to expose the hidden cost of energy and the value of what we too often take for granted.
