Flos by Carl Kleiner
Atrium’s new showroom on Leonard Street, displayed at the Shoreditch design triangle, provided the setting for a photographic exhibition from Flos by Swedish talent Carl Kleiner. Created in collaboration with Omar Sosa, the works celebrate Flos’ latest architectural lighting collections using Kleiner’s typically abstract compositions in bold colours and geometric formations.
Cynara One
Designed by Nantapoom Chumpengphan and featured at the Tent / Superbrands design festival in London, the Cynara One lampshade is a beautifully crafted sculptural object shaped from a continuous arrangement of petal-like plates. These tapered plates come in a variety of materials, including paper, fabric, plastic and birchwood (pictured).
Boo
Designed by Hedda Torgersen and introduced at the London design festival Tent / Superbrands, Boo has a playful aesthetic, intended to trigger the imagination. Its curious head is made of porcelain or Corian and its long, thin legs are made of ash wood. The legs can be adjusted, allowing the user some involvement in the shaping of Boo’s character.

The thin tubular laboratory glass forms the stand and neck of Hadovka lamp, whilst the hand-blown shade is either titan-coated or sand-blasted in order to provide higher quality light.
Poppy
Available in a series of configurations, Poppy looks stunning as a single pendant, or combined as an unconventional chandelier - its stems combined and bent to order. Over time, the hue of the smoothed cast brass darkens, conveying a nature-like quality to the perpetual blossoms. Poppy was introduced in the Tent / Superbrands design festival in London.

Ballroom Blitz
Combining elegance and engineering, Ballroom Blitz is a chandelier piece comprised of recycled bicycle chains that have been degreased by hand and left in their original state.
