- The Merengue lamp stands out due to its intricate mold-making process. The mold requires both an inner casting as well as an outer casting to achieve its distinctive curvatures both inside and outside.

Notably, the Merengue lamp has been released in various pop colors, but each have white inner coloring.
- Research
- The Swirl Lamp design has emerged during a design research/challenge to find foods that can be turned into practical home decorations. Many food scan data has been formed during this research, but The Meringue cookie's scan was selected since it had a great pattern. Through 3D scanning and careful remodeling, the unique meringue shape is transformed into a symmetric lamp, complemented by carefully chosen brass accessories that follow the lamp's curved form.
- Inspiration
- The inspiration behind the lamp's design stems from the Meringue cookie, with a process involving 3D scanning of edible items and translating them into practical design elements for everyday household decor. The lamp's symmetrical form and the curves that flow through contribute to its charm in enhancing living spaces with a touch of Pop Art inspired home decor.
- Project Duration
- The Lamp design started in late 2020 and was completed in 2021. The design appeared in Maison Francaise December 2022.
