Ingo Maurer Zettel'z – unusual pendant lamp for individual design
Zettel'z is prototypical for the unconventional, original design style of Ingo Maurer. The extravagant lamp is one of the most famous of the designer and his eponymous company.
The basic structure of the pendant lamp is formed by countless thin stainless steel rods and one or two light sources, surrounded by diffusers made of heat-resistant satin glass. Highlight and at the same time trademark of the Ingo Maurer lamp are the many small printed and unprinted sheets of translucent Japanese paper. They are attached around the diffuser with small stainless steel clips and shield the illuminant in this way.
The blank sheets of paper invite you to interact with the lamp from Ingo Maurer and become creative yourself. Hold on the Japanese paper your favorite sayings or quotes or make small drawings. Thus, you add an individual touch to your interior with the already extraordinary designer pendant lamp and provide diffused room light. With the Zettel'z 5, you also benefit from zoned light through the lower of the two light sources. This makes the luminaire well suited for dining table lighting.
Ingo Maurer – designer and entrepreneur with a love of the unusual
The designer and company founder Ingo Maurer (1932 to 2019) specialized in lamps and lighting installations. He was awarded several major prizes for many of his designs. In 2010, he received the Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany.
Ingo Maurer studied commercial art in Munich and then worked as a graphic designer. In 1966 he founded his own company under the name Design M, later renamed Ingo Maurer.
The designer loved the unconscious, which is why he did not pursue a concrete strategy when designing. He was always concerned with the effect his designs had on people. He wanted his objects and installations to trigger joy in those who looked at them. Even after his death, he succeeded in doing this through his unusual, surprising and sometimes provocative designs.
