Triz Lamp

Triz Lamp

Triz Lamp is an innovative lighting fixture designed by Renata Gutierrez and James Rowland that exemplifies versatile functionality and aesthetic refinement through its adaptable mounting system and handcrafted construction. Created in Paraty, Brazil in 2017, this sophisticated luminaire demonstrates exceptional versatility through its ability to be mounted in six different wall orientations, suspended from the ceiling, or placed on flat surfaces. The lamp's distinctive design incorporates a cleverly engineered mounting mechanism that resembles a dragonfly, serving both functional and aesthetic purposes while requiring only a single screw for installation. Crafted from native Brazilian hardwoods, specifically rose cedar with caxeta details, the Triz Lamp showcases traditional woodworking techniques including dovetail splines for joint reinforcement and careful consideration of wood movement due to environmental factors. The lamp's dimensions of 170mm width, 134mm depth, and 145mm height reflect its compact yet impactful presence. Its minimalist geometric form and thoughtful construction emphasize the designers' philosophy of creating simple contemporary designs using pure materials and natural finishes. The Triz Lamp has been recognized for its design excellence, receiving a Bronze A' Design Award in the Lighting Products and Fixtures Design category, acknowledging its innovative approach to versatile lighting solutions and masterful craftsmanship. The design successfully addresses the challenge of creating a lighting solution suitable for various environments and applications while maintaining aesthetic integrity and functional simplicity.
