Paralela | NEW

by Nahtrang Studio

Paralela, a modular system designed by the Spanish Nahtrang Studio, stemmed from a quest to lend shape to light so that the light itself becomes a tangible decorative luminous element. Hence the idea of creating light-filled borosilicate glass cylinders – joined to one another by Nylon PA12 connectors – that use gravity to occupy space in an orderly manner, entering into a visual dialog that becomes a symphony of light. This is a complete and new product family, available in both horizontal and vertical pendant version, table lamp, floor lamp and sconce, in different sizes and five colors.


Paralela has been selected as an “Honoree” in the architectural lighting category of Interior Design Magazine ’s Best of Year 2023 awards.

INTERVIEW WITH DANIEL VILA AND ESTER PUJOL

 

Can you tell us a bit about what the initial inspiration was for this collection?
We were thinking about the immateriality of light, how in a way a lamp can hold the light becoming a form by itself.
We were inspired by the idea of tighten the light.
We like the idea of a pending ladder of illuminated parallel lines, ordered by gravity, connected together in a point where each lamp rests and holds the next one, developing a visual dialogue, a symphony of light.

 

What is most important for you when designing lighting fixtures?
Keeping in mind, not only the lamp itself, but also what do we want to communicate, what kind of environment we want to generate. Illumination for us is, without any doubt, the most important element to create a pleasant atmosphere, it has the power to change moods, to modify our biorhythms…so we feel a huge responsibility designing it.
Starting from here, we try to wrap all of this in the more suitable envelope.

 

What inspires your work?
An exhibition, a song, a book or a trip, light, tranquility and keeping the mind awake… all of this works for us, but inspiration goes further. There is no formula or technique that makes us work mathematically when we face a new project. We are lucky to have a good capacity of understanding that helps us unlock an idea through reflection or coherence. Over time, we have learned to be more efficient in order to achieve the goal in the best possible way.
