Italian brand Henge unveils sculptural lights collection
(Italy) – Henge reveals its new collection of lights created through long-standing collaborations with esteemed designers Massimo Castagna, Ugo Cacciatori and Yabu Pushelberg. Each designer has created new pieces through combining historically sought-after ‘Made in Italy’ craftsmanship with modern technology.
During Milan Design Week, Castagna presented ‘Spyder X’. The pendant lamp consists of a set of fluted borosilicate glass cylinders, finished at the ends by rounded bumps in burnished brass, arranged horizontally and vertically.
The collection also includes Cacciatori’s design ‘He-She”, a hybrid table and light crafted from marble blocks, revealing the alchemy of hidden textures and veins through the soft beam of light.
The ‘Maple’, designed by duo George Yabu and Glenn Pushelberg, mirrors the seeds of a maple tree expanding its stems. The pendant lamp expands its stems in black burnished brass, sprouting blown glass buds creating refined plays of light.
‘Chrystal Evo’, by Castagna features long rods that move through the air displaying choreographic compositions, alchemies of light and arabesque textures. Castagna also designed the ‘Superb-All Horizontal’, made from fibreglass spheres creating interplay of geometry and gravity via tapered stems of burnished brass and metal.
