Dark Tools / wakaNINE / Snowflake

Designed by wakaNINE

The idea for Snowflake was influenced by David’s artist residency in Antarctica in 2004. Snowflake is a similar form to Kina, but has a totally different geometry.

In 2015 it won a Red Dot Design Award for lighting design and has been a popular light since. Snowflake is assembled from snowflake-shaped bamboo components clipped into a tensile, thin skin. The geometry of construction creates intricate diamond apertures, allowing light to spill out in dappled shadows. Snowflake is equally effective over a dining table, a lounge, a reception, or bar. The impact created through scale and cast light is further enhanced by the range of finishes.
