Revitalizer by Merve Kahraman- 05.21.13
Here’s the latest from NOTCOT’s London-based editor and resident zoologist, Justine Aw as she checks out Clerkenwell Design Week 2013.
Revitalizer from Merve Kahraman, a wax-lamp that re-creates itself. The wax lampshade melts over time, dripping into the mold below to reform the shade. The result is an ever-changing sculpture, but also a room that smells of candlewax. More photos of the Revitalizer and Revitalizer 2 in the House of Detention during Clerkenwell Design Week and a video of the lamp in action from the designer on the next page!
The ash wood Revitalizer 2.
The wax is melted by the heat of the lamp.
The melting not only creates beautiful patterns, but also begins the process of remaking the wax original lampshade.
