When itвЂ™s lit from below, the lamp shade creates light and shadow effects not only within the fabric creases but also on the adjoining wall. Pina, a series of distinctive side tables designed by Sebastian Herkner, is inspired by the abstract twists and turns of Pina BauschвЂ™s famous dance theatre. When the light is not turned on, the object presents itself as a certain organic object. The resulting creased fabric is then placed upside down to create a lamp shade with the initial four corners of the fabric functioning as legs of the shade. The hung fabric is left to dry until it is completely hardened. The extraordinary design of a solid base and a reduced luminaire head puts itself in the right light everywhere - in living rooms and bedrooms as well as on the balcony or the patio. It is equipped with a powerful rechargeable battery that lasts for 13 hours.

This crease effect follows the way how the fabric behaves itself in relationship to the pulled points and different amount of weights. The Pina Pro lamp emits its light in warm white plus wherever you need it. This hung fabric is pulled upwards from certain points by thread with spherical weight placed in between the pulled points so the fabric will create specific creases as well as stretch itself. Fabric is cut into square and dipped into fabric hardener, then hung in a framed structure from four corners of the fabric. The fabric is hardened to structure itself while it is configured to make specific creases for light and shadow effects as the lamp shade. The shade uses the fabric 95% cotton and 5% spandex. The basic figurine with base, rod and top shines in different combinations of aqua blue, transparent, green and light grey.
