Poetic, lightweight and immaculately white, Icarus reminds us of the human aspiration to flight: a link between us and the celestial light. Tord Boontje – another über talended designer from the Netherlands says about his design: "Through experimentation with cutting paper to create a three dimensional form for a light, we discovered a structure with overlapping feather shapes that resembled a swan's wing. We made the form a-symmetrical to emphasise this and to make it very dynamic. As the light appears as a wing circling a light, the name Icarus seemed an appropriate reference." We completely agree, but add some important details: It comes packed flat, you shouldn't use more than a 60 watt bulb which is not included, the material used is Mylar and it is approximately 16.5" x 31.25" x 16.5" (42 x 79 x 42 cm) in size.
