U32-1 by SHIFT

View all 14 Photos

Mexican design studio SHIFT brings an edgy new design to the table – or rather, above it – with the U32-1. Created for manufacturer Lampslite, the all-metal pendant light is an exploration of both form and current trends in the world of contemporary urban design. Its striking geometry is intended to create a “dialogue between surface and frame” to mimic the sharp structural tensions within modern city landscapes. Endless combinations of black, white, and gold, including monochromatic options, give U32-1 a simple yet sharp aesthetic to accent practically any modern space.
