Behind the Design

Unique Properties: Kalky ragged is a lamp with a lampshade, made with the use of self-developed technology, which consists of manual dyeing, impregnation, as well as sewing and riveting tracing paper. The openwork structure of the lampshade with a high degree of flexibility allows the shade to be inverted and thus obtain a completely different lamp form. Reversing is simple and only involves repositioning the mounting of the light source holder. An important element of the design is the hand-teared edge of the lampshade components, contrasting with the straight cut.

Production Technology: Self-developed technology, which consists of manual dyeing, impregnation, as well as sewing and riveting tracing paper. An important element of the design is the hand-teared edge of the lampshade components, contrasting with the straight cut.
Design Challenge: The biggest challenge in creating Kalky Ragged was finding a way to convey specific emotions in the product. The purpose of its creation was to present it at an exhibition on a specific topic. Finding a way to express emotions using hand-peeled edge treatment of the components resulted in a visually appealing object that was eventually implemented as a product.
Inspiration: The main inspiration of this design was self-developed technology and material created with use of it. Its characteristics became the basis for creating a flexible spatial structure, constituting the basis for creating a lamp with a seemingly traditional form, the main idea of which was to change the shape in the simplest possible way.
Project Duration: The Kalky Ragged project started in February 2022, made especially for the exhibition Nie!Pokoj, as the joint appeal of artists and designers for peace in Ukraine. The exhibition at the Academic Center of Design in Łódź took place from 08.03 to 31.05.2022. Next Kalky Ragged was included to the Bozzetti collection.
Operation Flow: Kalky ragged is a reversible lamp. Flipping is simple and only requires changing the mounting position of the light source holder. It takes about 10 seconds and allows the user to choose the preferred shape of the lampshade.
