Design of the Day - Ingo Maurer's Zettel'z 6 Lamp




Ingo Maurer Zettel'z 6 Lamp

The Zettel'z 6 lamp was designed by Ingo Maurer in Germany. This unique design was recently featured at the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum in New York. The Ingo Maurer Zettel'z 6 Suspension uses 40 printed- and 40 blank Japanese paper sheets. Ingo Maurer uses this Japanese paper as a translucent medium whichss allows light to pass though the scripted pages. The 40 printed sheets display love letters in many languages, and the owner is invited to participate in the creativity. 40 blank pages are supplied to let you create your own letters and add to the design.
