about the design

Imagine the warm glow of sunset filtering through a coral reef beneath the ocean’s surface. Our lamps are designed to bring that feeling into your home—soft light, gentle shadows, and patterns that feel calm and natural. As the light passes through each piece, it creates textured shapes on walls and ceilings, adding warmth and atmosphere to the space around you.

The forms are inspired by brain coral, known for its flowing ridges and valleys. These organic shapes break up the light in a way that feels alive and soothing. Throughout the day and evening, the patterns subtly shift, turning everyday rooms into places of rest and comfort. It’s nature’s beauty, translated into light.

There is also a deeper meaning behind the design. In the ocean, corals can sometimes glow with bright colors when they are under stress—just before they begin to bleach and lose their color. This brief glow is both beautiful and fragile. Our lamps take inspiration from this moment, capturing a soft, luminous quality that reflects both vulnerability and resilience in nature.

Coral reefs are delicate, but they can recover when conditions improve. In the same way, these lamps are meant to be a quiet reminder that small, thoughtful choices can make a difference. More than a source of light, each piece invites reflection—on the natural world, its beauty, and our responsibility to protect it.

the science behind the beauty

The patterns in our lamps are created using reaction–diffusion algorithms. These are mathematical systems that produce complex, organic-looking designs similar to those found in nature. They allow patterns to form naturally, without strict symmetry, resulting in flowing textures that feel alive rather than mechanical.

Each design is then 3D printed into a sculptural lampshade. Every piece is shaped by light, mathematics, and inspiration from the natural world—designed not just to illuminate a room, but to bring a sense of calm and awareness into everyday life.

 

Michael Jasinski

Michael's passion for technology found a pathway through mechanical engineering, where his fascination with 3D printing and nature-inspired design took root. Drawing on his research background, he found inspiration in the complex yet harmonious forms of the natural world. His work is dedicated to transforming these organic motifs into innovative and practical lighting solutions. Michael's approach is driven by a desire to make technology feel more human, crafting designs that are both visually striking and deeply connected to the environment. He aims to bring warmth and creativity to spaces by uniting the precision of engineering with the elegance of nature.

Boyan Mihaylov

Boyan started his journey in architecture, but once he discovered biomimetics - the use of nature’s engineering principles to create buildings - his interests quickly exploded into polymathic trajectories. With a decade of experience in computational modelling for design and digital fabrication, he has been programming designs that grow, evolve or improve, much like biological creatures do. He is currently on a course to expand his skill set for science, using his knowledge about algorithms to address not only design problems, but also matters of physics and biology.
