Lighting by Marco Stefanelli

Italian designer Marco Stefanelli‘s handsome collection of Brecce lamps combine high-tech LED lights and scraps of wood to make a beautiful way to accent a space. The pieces are made from salvaged wood scraps sourced from a lumber mill, a local river, and even the firewood pile. The magic comes with the addition of low-energy LEDs embedded behind a layer of resin.

Pablo Valbuena: Lighting Projects

Pablo Valbuena: Lighting Projects

Born in 1978 in Spain and currently based in the south of France, Pablo Valbuena is known for art installations focused on space, time and perception.

His art explores the overlap of the ‘actual’ and the ‘virtual’, the creation of intellectual spaces by the observer, and the dissolution of boundaries between real and perceived. Pablo’s research examines the bonds connecting space and time and the use of light and sound as prime matter.The strobing light installations creates a harsh contrast of their physical space and provides an illusion of infinity depth. Created by Pablo Valbuena.
