Werner Aisslinger x Baulmann Leuchten
Description:
The new "Dune" lighting series, designed by Werner Aisslinger for Baulmann Leuchten, is produced using an innovative 3D printing process from quartz sand and consists of interlocking, morphing spheres. These lights consist of morphing spheres that are produced through a technically sophisticated process and are suitable for use as pendant, floor, table, and wall lamps in a variety of architectural and interior settings. The rough surface texture, created by 3D printing with quartz sand, gives the lights a tactilely pleasing feel, making them particularly suitable for spaces with concrete walls or sustainable rammed earth construction. The Dune series combines the ambiance of mood lighting with the functionality of spotlights, capable of illuminating rooms in a targeted and warm manner. This innovative 3D printing process is executed by FDB printers, which apply quartz sand particle material in thin layers. A high-resolution print head then selectively prints this layer with a binder made of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) to achieve the desired form.
