Artemide - nh S1 22 suspension lamp

With nh continues the research on the dynamic interaction of experience, detail, material, shape and light that neri&hu is developing with Artemide. The choice of materials is a perfect synthesis between tradition and innovation, but also an expression of a responsible and sustainable design thanks to the use of a low-consumption retrofit LED source. Like every project designed by neri&hu, nh is a reinterpretation of culture and traditional Eastern, in a continuous contemporary reflection. Through a surprising lightness and elementary gestures nh builds a landscape of elements that generate, single or combined with each other, a non-static compositional balance characterized by elegance in the combination of colors and materiality.

Neri&Hu

Founded in 2004 by partners Lyndon Neri and Rossana Hu, Neri & Hu Design and Research Office is an interdisciplinary architectural design practice based in Shanghai, China with an additional office in London, UK. The works that provide Neri & Hu vary internationally: from architecture, interiors, master planning, graphics to product design services. Neri & Hu is made up of multi-cultural staff, in fact the diversity of the team reinforces a fundamental vision for practice: that is to respond to a global vision that incorporates overlapping design disciplines for a new paradigm in architecture. Neri & Hu still works on the dynamic interaction of experience, detail, material, form and light, rather than conforming to a stereotypical style. The ultimate meaning behind each project comes from how constructed forms create meaning through their physical representations. Neri & Hu and their design have been recognized by a number of prestigious international design awards. Maison & Objet named them Asia Designer of the Year 2015.  Moreover UK Wallpaper* has named the Partners founders Lyndon Neri and Rossana Hu as "Designers of The Year 2014". Finally, they are also included in the list of the 40 most important designers "under 40" who shape China.
