Can\u00a0destruction be beautiful? Can destruction be constructive? Sounds like a vague or rather abstract question. Isn’t it?<\/span><\/p>\n

Romanian designer Dragos Motica\u00a0<\/strong>answers these questions in affirmation with his latest creation called Slash Lamp. <\/strong>Designed for furniture brand\u00a0Ubikubi,\u00a0<\/strong>the\u00a0lamp is designed using materials found on construction sites:\u00a0concrete, reinforcing wire, rope climbing, spool for high voltage wires.<\/span><\/p>\n

The lampshade is manufactured\u00a0by pouring concrete into a silicone mold and over the wire mesh. The concrete cast is air dried and polished.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The packaging comes with a small rock which could be used to smash the concrete shade to create a customized version of the lampshade and reveal the wire mesh and light bulb within.\u00a0A cork core cut on a computer numerically controlled (CNC) machine can be inserted into the concrete shape to protect the light bulb from damage when the concrete is smashed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Available in various colours, the concrete cylindrical lamp is\u00a0suspended from the ceiling by a textured cord, attached to a carabiner and spool to enable its height to be adjusted. <\/span><\/p>\n

Love the industrial vibe!\u00a0Slash Lamp<\/strong> –\u00a0Smash it to flash it!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
