Impressive Nanopaper Home Lighting
Introducing laminated nanopaper lamps from MooDoo, a young design studio in Prague. Simple and spectacular!
The designer of the lamps is MgA. Tomas Paul, a well-known artist in the Czech Republic. Peter Skacel and Marek Schwarz are technical developers of the special paper used to create the line of elegant ambient lighting. They work in conjunction with NeoGraph, a Czech security paper mill.
So just what is nanopaper? I was curious and found this wiseGEEK site that explains it is an extremely durable paper that obtains its strength from trillions of linked cellulose nanofibers. Still a very new technology, scientists are working worldwide to develop uses for this fascinating discovery.
The line of MooDoo lamps may be expanded in the future to include printed and/or perforated papers.
This limited edition shade with stand is designed to hold a tea candle. Protective figures surround a cradle, standing under Prague's majestic Gothic arches. So beautiful in its simplicity.
Visit MooDoo's new Etsy shop and view additional lamp designs on the company's website, MooDoo.
By the way, for those of you who were interested in the 3-D modular origami featured last week, Helen of Let's Create has many tutorials on her blog.
