Imperium

Imperium is a striking contemporary lamp that blends elements of classical architecture with modern lighting design. The lamp consists of a white concrete pillar with an illuminated silicone tube snaking up the lamp via multiple through holes.

The juxtaposition of the rigid, historical form of the column with the organic, advanced LED creates a sharp visual tension. It is as if the lamp is representing a conflict between past and present, tradition and modernity.

The lamp occupies a space between functional lighting and sculptural art. While it clearly serves as a light source, its unconventional form and the interplay between light and shadow  elevate it to an artistic statement piece.

Imperium would be equally at home in a sleek modern interior or as a dramatic outdoor lighting feature, perhaps illuminating a garden path or highlighting architectural features of a building’s exterior
