POETICS OF DESIGN

Design research goes well beyond the functional aspects of repairability, suggesting a new aesthetic of imperfection, or actively involving users in the production, repair and modification of objects.

A wireless portable luminaire that has been designed for the longest product life possible, and fully repairable. Faccin wanted an extreme simplicity of construction, marrying traditional craft with modern technology. By turning its conical reflector, the lighting can be precisely adjusted from off to on and anywhere in between. Pepa can be opened by removing just four screws and at the product’s end-of-life all its parts can be singularly detached and sorted, as much as the natural wood body can return to nature. It uses standard AA NiMH batteries, that can be found anywhere.
