Cloud Suspension by Belux

BELUX presents CLOUD, the first lamp designed for serial production by master architect Frank O. Gehry. As both a sculptural lamp and a lamp sculpture, CLOUD is a design concept in which the user becomes co-designer. The design is convincing because of its uncommonly poetic and richly associative visual language, its simple construction and its many applications. The lamps are available in various sizes and models, such as hanging, standing, floor and table lamps. Each lamp has a voluminous yet delicate paper-like shade, in the centre of which is the invisible light source. With its irregular sculptural shape, marked by countless folds, crimps, bulges and dents, it suggests a fleecy CLOUD and then again a large, soft snowball. Looked at more closely, the lampshade consists of several interlinked cup-like elements. Each lamp has an individual note in spite of all lamps having the same structure and the same predetermined shape. The idea is that the fold structure of the shade, which is shaped more or less by accident during production, can be changed by bulging it out or pressing it in. In doing so, Gehry makes users into co-designers who can repeatedly change the shape of the lamp if they so wish. After comprehensive tests, a multiply refined polyester material was developed, which feels and looks like strong fibrous paper. Flexible, tear-free, flame-resistant and aging resistant, this material is easy to clean and therefore ideal for CLOUD.
