SHAYK is a pendant Lamp inspired by the intricate dome pattern in the Mosque ‘Sheikh Lotfollah’ in Isfahan, Iran. The construction is based on the geometry in the dome consisting of logarithmic spirals and interweaved with a lock to maintain the shape. The play with light and shadow creates an even larger dome within the room.
That’s the official description of the lamp and what inspired us to explore the play between light and shadow. Looking at the lamp we saw a certain mystery and created an abstract story about moving lights and shadows in a dark forest. Crafting a memorable visual atmosphere was foundation of the idea and when we found the sound bite that is the basis of the soundtrack, everything fell into place.
