Kah-du Collection | Ilanel design studio

Australian lighting designer ilan.el has created this pendant light Kah-du Collection.  The kah-du collection features hand crafted lampshades based on a mathematical composition of a high-impact pattern. Its invasive effects are irresistible, and while intriguing, also visually striking.

These bespoke pieces appear to be ‘breathing’ and give the impression of movement and depth, reminiscent of the Op Art movement of the 1960s.

Kah-du offers a bold sculptural presence and is a perfect statement to any modern space.
