Some of the most popular lighting trends in today’s lighting design markets include elements that have been used before, but are now being used in amazingly different ways. Rough, like wood grains and metal texturing. Smooth, like shimmering smooth metal surfaces.
The lighting designer Tom Dixon’s new lighting collection explores the idea of rough and smooth. The designer’s fascination shines through in the lamp shade’s extreme polished surfaces, sharp distinctive lines, and modern usage of manufacturing.
Celebrating the joy of contrast with some of nature’s best components, the smooth surfaces seem to balance the rough textures. Giving leeway to the shimmering light reflections on the smooth surfaces and shadows of the rough and uneven textures. Can they work, can they compliment each other, and how does the addition of light effect it all? See for yourself in this beautiful new collection by Tom Dixon.
