Aitho draws on the archetype of the classic globe, an object that has long framed curiosity and reflection for generations. Movement becomes its defining gesture, translating this familiar reference into a contemporary study of shifting light.
The lampshade can be tilted, allowing light to be directed and redefined through reflections from the light source within the granite base, projected onto its glossy surface.
The granite base introduces a grounded material weight, ensuring stability while echoing the Earth’s interior as a calm, silent presence. A raw frame sets a precise contrast against this natural density. With Aitho, the weight of time meets the immaterial nature of light - a system that allows light itself to be composed within space.
