Pinha

Pinha

Designed by Raw Edges.

Pinha

Pinha proposes a playful approach to lighting through personalization. This hanging lamp consists of a cork outer shade to which one or more ultra resistant tyvek® paper shades are fastened. You have the last word on how Pinha looks, by choosing the shade(s) from among different shapes and drawings available.

Function-wise, you can also decide on the direction and range of the light, by adjusting where the shade is pinned. 

  • Cork's low thermal and electrical conductivity ensures that you can handle the lamp shade in perfect safety.

Raw Edges

Under the name Raw Edges, Yael Mer & Shay Alkalay work towards a common goal: to create objects that have never been seen before. Yael's main focus lies in turning two-dimensional sheet materials into curvaceous functional forms, whereas Shay is fascinated by how things move, function and react. Since their graduation show at the Royal College of Art in 2006, they have been distinguished with The British Council Talented Award, iF Gold Award, Dutch Design Award, Wallpaper* Design Award 2009, Elle Decoration International Design Award for best furniture 2008/09 and the Designer of the Future Award 2009 from Design Miami/Basel.
Their work has been exhibited at Johnson Trading Gallery, FAT Galerie, Scope Art Fair and Rossana Orlandi and featured in major design publications and newspapers worldwide. Their designs can be found in the collections of MoMA and The Design Museum London, as well as in production with Cappellini, Established & Sons and Arco. Yael & Shay also produce one-offs and limited editions in their London studio.
