Wuni of Artemide, is "IN-EI", in Japanese means "shadow, darkness, hue". The art of lighting must part of its conceptual and technological heritage to the Miyake Design Studio.
This luminaire is on its way in search of innovative textile technologies. The project, born of the marriage between creativity and mathematics, gives life to a suit that can be folded and that takes three-dimensional forms. From a single cut of cloth !.
The collection of lighting products IN-EI ISSEY MIYAKE was developed in collaboration with Artemide, while manufacture was in charge of the latter.
Each of the screens is created based on mathematical principles 2D or 3D, with a harmonious alternation between lights and shadows. The technology of Miyake folding is unique: it creates sculptural forms and, at the same time, provides the indispensable strength. Thanks to the structure of recycled material, to which an additional surface treatment is applied, the shape of the screens is perfectly preserved without the need to incorporate a frame. And, if necessary, you can recreate the original form. In addition, when the screens are not used, they can be folded easily and take up very little space.
