At Ingo Maurer, light is never just functional—it is always an experience and a reflection of the familiar. For the 3daysofdesign event, the team presented a deep blue wooden box at the Alice Folker Gallery in Copenhagen, filled with new designs and classics from Ingo Maurer’s lighting collection, as well as pink packing chips that gently cascaded to the floor when the box was opened. Was it careful staging or mere coincidence? In this setting, the new luminaires Shhh!, Jasna Kuchnia and NALUM were unveiled. Each of them poses its own questions about the function and perception of light. Whether it’s a light bulb under headphones, stacked porcelain plates that begin to glow, or curved glass tracing the movement of water—these three designs all show how poetic light can be when it is freed from familiar contexts.
