Zak Zarak

The first samples of our new task lamp Zak Zarak will be available soon. The design by Lutz Pankow and Ingo Maurer was presented at light+building in Frankfurt a.M. in April 2012.

Aluminium composite, metal, plastic. 2 warm white LEDs with 6.5 watts each, 3000 K, 950 lm. Length/height max. 80 cm. Rotates at the base 360°. Lamp head swivels through 30°. Sensor switch in the lamp head. Complete with bulb and electronic ballast.

Lutz Pankow loves to deal with the technical aspects of design. He made Zak Zarak to radically change the appearance of desk lamps: instead of complicated mechanisms and lots of bits and pieces, a simple flat strip folded into a distinctive geometrical form. Magnets replace the springs and hooks of standard desk lamps.

22.11.2012 Moritz Waldemeyer for Ingo Maurer

My New Flame Black or Red

My New Flame is a distinctive table ‚candle’ that never burns down. The stunning combination of high-tech and poetic expression is an idea of Moritz Waldemeyer. At the upper end of a sleek black or red circuit board, a candle flame seems to flicker in the wind. Up close, you perceive a double-sided rectangular display made of 128 tiny LEDs per side, which renders the image of a burning flame.

Sophisticated programming of the LEDs and their warm colour temperature make the flame look astonishingly realistic. There are lots of ways to use My New Flame: on elaborately set tables,in living rooms, outdoors, and as night light for all those who prefer not to fall asleep in the dark.

In Milan and New York, the installation Candles in the Wind fascinated many of our visitors in spring 2012. The lighting object is made from 100 LED "candles". Each one has been programmed to produce an individual, smooth rhythm of movement. Candles in the Wind will soon be exhibited in our Munich showroom.

My New Flame has been released for sale end of October 2012. Also available in Red since beginning of December 2012.

Launch party at our Munich showroom on November 8, and November 15 at our New York showroom.

Patent pending.
