A Catenary is the elegant natural curve a hanging rope or chain forms under its own weight.

Inspired by 20th century Neofuturism and Gaudi’s prototypes, Mitchell explored the geometry for months with the result of this study being a range of decorative wall lamps entirely shaped by gravity.

Made from PVC within a soft and thick bouclé fabric cover, it is the worlds first portable luxury sofa!

Crafted with people who travel and rent apartments all around the world in mind, it can be deflated and packed away in a small postage box and sent to location ahead of arrival.

Small weights, inspired by those seen on the 1784 Montgolfier Brother balloon, hang around the sides ensuring sofa stability when in use.

Hug Lamps

Chantelle Lighting
36, Lomeshaye Business Village, Turner Rd, Nelson BB9 7DR, United Kingdom

2020 was tough, we couldn’t spend time with family and friends when we needed them most. Weddings cancelled, businesses closed, jobs lost, loved ones lost, families separated and curfews imposed. I hope 2021 is the year where we can safely hold each other again

The Hug Lamp is illumed by bringing the two sculptural figures together. They glow on contact.

These totemic floor lights are made by stacking lampshades. When it’s time to switch up your interior design, you can disassemble the shades and sell them individually and earn more than you paid for the original lamps...

This is due to the price difference between buying lampshades wholesale or individually.

I had an idea a while back gazing over the rooftops. How could this ubiquitous material be brought into the home in a beautiful and functional way?

The end result of various explorations was this table. It seemed only fitting to illume it from within, so the light would carry the warm colour of the terracotta around the room.

I really love the idea something as damaging as a Power Station can be home to nature. In this design, the chimney stores and slowly distributes water to plants so you don’t need to worry about them drying out.

When arranged, they form a table centrepiece perfect as an artistic statement in any trendy Australian apartment!

We’ve always been disappointed by ‘reading lamps’ as the single light source always casts such distracting shadows. Suspension Lamp solves this by using a LED strip in suspension directly over where the light is needed.

Through appreciating forms and emotions associated with our youth, we might rediscover some of that wide-eyed curiosity and wonder in the world. The term ‘Mardy’ in English is used to describe a sullen or pouting child.

In ancient Egypt, goddess Hathor was considered to be the personification of joy, love and sexuality. In keeping with this theme, these sculptural luminaires intend to illume a space that may yield such moments.

I was looking at a Power Station on my way to work on a beautiful morning and thought the scene was too picturesque with the sun backlit clouds coming out of the chimney. In my daydream I saw the cloud wilt, personifying the damage these cathedrals of power do the environment. As the cloud was illuminated, it seemed logical to name the product ‘Light Pollution lamp’ to humour the audience and bring attention to the multitude of pollution problems we bestow on the world.

Fruit of the Ficus Carica tree form in an usually way. At first they grow upwards seeming to defy gravity. As their size increases, their tone becomes a rich purple and the increased weight causes the supporting branch to flop. Inspired by the aesthetics of this process, Mitchell produced the Fig Lamp.
