More from Molo: Paper Softlight
by Collin Dunn, Corvallis, OR, USA on 08.29.07
The Vancouver-based designers at Molo are at it again. After rocking our world earlier this year, they've returned to the "soft" aesthetic that brought the world softwall and softseating to add some lighting to the mix. "softlight" follows a similar pattern to the other soft elements, utilizing the flexible paper honeycomb pattern to maximize strength and efficiency while minimizing materials. The honeycomb works particularly well for this design, creating a really neat effect with just a single lightbulb. Of course, we have to recommend popping a compact fluorescent lightbulb in there; we really like how the look grouped together. molo's site says they aren't available yet, but Unica Home appears ready to sell them to you.
