Torch Lights

A variety of non-domestic, but yet familiar and functional forms of lighting inspired Sylvain Willenzâ€™s design.

February 3rd, 2010

Torch Light, owes elements of its form to the typical torch and the car headlight. PVC dipped polymer gives a tactile finish, referencing the handheld nature of a torch, whilst light shines through a clear, diamond textured polycarbonate diffuser (akin to the textured glass of a car headlight) creating an ambient light.
