Book is an extraordinary pendant lamp Designed for BETACALCO (Canada) in 2020 that draws its inspiration from a profound concept: ‘The Light of Knowledge.’ This captivating design concept was born from a moment of creative brainstorming, where the essence of knowledge itself guided my vision. The book, a timeless symbol of wisdom and enlightenment, became the muse for this remarkable lamp.

The essence of the book is encapsulated within the lamp’s design, with the main body taking the form of an elongated rectangular prism suspended elegantly by two steel wires. Its grand dimensions and elongated parallelepiped shape create a striking visual presence, capturing attention and commanding admiration in any space it graces.

To fulfill the client’s vision of minimalistic and functional design, the exterior of the lamp features sound-absorbing properties. Crafted from 100% recycled polyester fiber (PET), a material known for its sustainability, the lamp not only enhances the acoustics of any environment but also contributes to a greener planet. PET is ingeniously transformed from recycled plastic bottles into a premium fabric, showcasing the lamp’s commitment to both aesthetics and environmental responsibility.

Nestled within the PET casing, the lamp’s main body is expertly crafted from extruded aluminum, seamlessly blending durability and elegance. This combination of materials elevates the lamp’s visual appeal, creating a harmonious interplay between the sleek aluminum core and the soft, textured PET covering.

With its impressive size and thoughtfully engineered design, Book illuminates spaces with a warm and inviting glow, casting its light upon the pages of knowledge. The recessed light diffuser, available in the BOOK version, adds a touch of subtlety, allowing the light to gently emanate, creating a cozy ambiance.

Book II, with its squared corners and non-recessed light diffuser, presents a bolder aesthetic statement, accentuating the lamp’s contemporary appeal. Both versions are testaments to the harmonious fusion of form and function.

For those seeking the distinctive sound-absorbing qualities without illumination, the BOOK non-illuminated and BOOK II non-illuminated versions stand ready to transform any space into an oasis of tranquility and acoustic perfection.

Book is more than just a lamp; it is a work of art that transcends the boundaries of traditional lighting. Its grandeur, meticulous design, and dedication to sustainable materials make it a testament to the power of knowledge and the marriage of beauty and functionality.
