Cactus Floor Lamp

Studio Indigene looks at objects of varied scale and functionality;objects of decor and daily use. The forms are minimally designed yetaspire to form an identity. All the designs incline toward achievingclean lines and curves, with a keen experimentation of volumetricconfiguration and combining one or two materials with a base material,our favourite – wood.Our designs are realised by the skillful handcrafting of our woodworkers,who are usually accustomed to traditional wood carving. They sit downwith us to understand the designs we visualise. Together we devisetechniques that utilise their skillset, at times challenge them even, totransfigure our designs on paper to objects in real life. The finishingof our products is also paid special attention to – the natural grainof the wood is retained. Each product is singular, in the realest sense,at our studio.The designs aspire to become the centre of attention in a space, whilebeing versatile to fit into a variety of settings and design styles. Theplay of volume in the wooden forms, carved out in pleasing proportions,highlight the wooden grains along their planes.In the process of production, each piece is intently worked on, thecrafting of wood, the assembly of all parts to make a whole – this is noless than creating a work of art. Each piece has a lasting impressionon us as creators, and we hope that this translates into the userexperience – for one’s hands to feel the beauty of what another ’shands have created.
