Light, printed slowly.
Five table lamps, each a single continuous print with the geometry doing the work — pleats, fins, strata, cells, a weave. Made to order in Melbourne, one at a time.
Lamps
Every shade drops onto the same charcoal base ring; the puck light pushes in from below and nothing is glued.

One piece at a time, slowly, in Melbourne.
Colour, base ring, diffuser and an optional engraving. Nothing is stocked; every lamp is printed for its owner.
Orders placed this week go onto the printer from Monday 21 September. Most shades are a single eighteen-to-twenty-hour print.
We email a photograph of your piece on the printer, and again when it is finished and checked.
Packed with the base ring and a signed card, 2–3 weeks from order. FREE AU over $100.
Formada Studio is the design line of Formada3D, Melbourne.
