STORY

Pluto belongs to the collection of two lamps whose name refer to the dwarf planet Pluto (see the Pluto Pendant Lamp). This planet's structure changes while orbiting around the Sun and that became a source of inspiration to create two lamps.

Pluto’s internal structure consists of dense core of rocks surrounded by a mantle of ice. Its orbit is elongated and when Pluto is closer to the Sun, its temperature increases causing the ice to sublimate into gas. As Pluto moves away from the Sun, its atmosphere gradually freezes out, and falls to the ground. That inspired the creation of a floor lamp, with the thick, solid layer of paper, much heavier than in the pendant version.

The paper used for this creation was destroyed, broken into tiny pieces, then transformed into a whole new material entity by a technique using hot temperature. The "new" paper can be shaped in many different ways and in its final form brings an association with nature, its source. Handmade in Spain.
