Ryosuke Fukusada’s Glowing LED Lamps are Suspended in Crocheted Nets

We recently showed you Ryosuke Fukusada [4]‘s innovative and playful designs, which include wooden light bulbs and tiny cakes shaped like furniture [5]; his recent project, Net Lamps [6], places efficient LED lamps as glowing orbs suspended within crocheted nets. Hanging Net Lamps combine elastic Poly-net [7] knitted into a tight column, which, suspended from metal loops on the floor and ceiling, hold the lamp in mid-air as it softly illuminates the unusual surrounding fabric.
The structure can be modified in length by just chopping its end part, adapting it to different ceiling heights and spaces. A graduate from the Domus Academy [8], Fukusada, a former consumer-electronics designer raised in Japan, currently works as a product designer for Patricia Urquiola [9]. Based in the bustling city of Milan, he continues his own design practice.
