Description:
The Maltese company was set up in 2017 with the sole objective to revolutionise the process of buying a light fitting. Founded by two lifelong friends, an architect and an engineer, the concept successfully merges computational design and digital fabrication.
This unique, customised dimension of the offering is made possible by the use of an online tool developed by this company, and which enables the client to prepare the desired product.
The company will then manufacture and deliver the product accordingly. A standard client goes on the website, creates or chooses their own lamp which is then processed in a customary procedure, by cutting the lamp from birch wood. The cut material is finished manually and then packaged.
Their award-winning "design to fabrication" process guarantees that each lighting unit is manufactured specifically to the client's requirements, combining the latest innovations in automated rapid manufacturing and the traditional manual material processing.
Through the use of natural recyclable materials and energy efficient LED lighting technology, sustainability is at the core of this company's values. Lamps are made from birch wood or other feasible materials and mass customisation is embraced. All bulbs and bulb holders are certified to work in the EU, as they have CE marking with 220V.
All products are processed and assembled in a near carbon neutral building; and by means of emerging rapid prototyping technology, the concept of mass-customisation ensures a close to zero waste production process, as units are only manufactured on demand.
Reseller or distributors, would have a user account on the company's website whilst also enabling them to have different functionalities on the company's design tool. They may market the product under the company's brand name and clients would be able to place orders through the reseller's user account.
