The Minomushi Floor Lamp was developed through a collaboration with Issey Miyake Design Studio and Artemide Design. Minomushi combines the Italian brand’s lighting expertise with the signature folding technology of Japanese designer Issey Miyake. The ability to marry expertise has resulted in an innovative approach to material with the lamp shade being manufactured from a strong polyester fabric, formed by recycled PET bottles, and folded into various shapes.

The Minomushi shade is created using 2 or 3D mathematic principals, where light and shade harmoniously alternate. The material and folding allow the shades to suspend or stand freely with no inner frame to support them, making each lamp collapsible and able to be stored flat when not in use.
