gala, baccarat
Project realized in collaboration with Yesim Eröktem at ECAL in 2013
Gala lighting collection was a collaboration with the french crystal factory Baccarat, to design a lighting collection that will be a tribute to the famous Harcourt glass. The main source of inspiration was Salvador Dali, who is a master at playing with the objects’ form and fluidity. The crystal in this lighting collection has a similar character, where it looks almost as if it landed on the structure. It was a great experience to play with this contradiction between the real features of the material, the weight and rigidity, and the almost floating, fluid image.
