Bright joy: Akari Light Sculptures luminaires 26A / 21A / 15A pendant light from Vitra
"The magic of paper transforms the cool electricity back into the eternal light of the sun. So that its warmth can continue to fill our rooms at night." - Isamu Noguchi
Akari is the Japanese term for brightness and light, which also includes lightness - so it is not surprising that the American-Japanese artist and designer Isamu Noguchi christened his luminaires Akari Light Sculptures.
The designer: Isamu Noguchi
Isamu Noguchi was born in Los Angeles in 1904, the son of a Japanese poet and an American writer. He studied at Columbia University and the Leonardo da Vinci Art School. Isamu Noguchi was a versatile artist and designer whose life and work in the most diverse cultural circles was reflected in his artistic creations. He is considered a universal talent and designed sculptures, furniture, lights and even stage sets. His sculptural style is particularly evident in pieces such as the Noguchi Coffee Table from Vitra.
Material and format
The lamps are made of washi paper with a bamboo/steel wire structure. They have different dimensions depending on the version:
- 26A : W 45 cm x D 45 cm x H 25 cm
- 21A: W 65 cm x D 65 cm x H 28 cm
- 15A: W 88 cm x D 88 cm x H 33 cm
