On occasion of Paris #design Week 2018, #foscarini will present “REVERSE ROOM” a special installation created by James Wines with his daughter Suzan Wines, designed to bring out the characteristics of surreal inversion of these variations on a theme. In a room with dark walls, overturned and angled, with monochrome tables and chairs, the suspension lamps sprout from the floor, while table lamps look down from the ceiling, challenging our perception of spaces and our response to environmental stimuli and conventions. The collection « The Light Bulb Series » is the main character of the installation.
The Light Bulb Series
Conceived as a set of five pieces, in numbered limited editions, The Light Bulb Series is a signature collection of objects that blur the boundaries between art and #design through Wines’ original thinking about form and function, exploring wide- ranging reflections on the light bulb as an archetype. The classic light bulb shape was initially dictated by function and technology available at its inception, and remained constant for decades during which the form became etched into collective memory and perception.
