Moooi - Raimond II Tensegrity d89 floor lamp

The Raimond Tensegrity is a floor lamp made of elegant metal, complemented by the robust earthiness of wood. Tensegrity is a term first described by Buckminster Fuller as an architectural term. It refers to the interconnected wooden structure that uses tension and pressure to maintain its shape. The beauty of Raimond Tensegrity lies not only in its contrasting materials, but also in the trigonometric harmony of both structures. Mathematical perfection multiplied by two.
