Description

“Heimat” is the intersection between memory and space. The desire for it increases with its loss; associated with feelings of nostalgia. Inspired by the region of Oranienbaum, a small town in the region of Saxony Anhalt, we expressed the impossibility to return to places of once memories. To capture this aspect, we designed a series of ceramic lampshades exclusively using leftovers found in the neighbourhood. We collected wallpaper, wood, coal, and clay – a byproduct of coal mining in that region – together with other organic materials from local farms and fields.

All materials were fired, together with the ceramics, in a primitive pit kiln. Each lampshade captures unique traces of burned materials, referring to something forever lost.

Each lamp is produced by hand and fired individually giving every piece a unique pattern. It is provided with a 2 meter long woven cable.

About the designer


“Revealing the relationships between people and objects is the aim of our approach. It allows us to see ourselves as part of a bigger picture - a complex system - we belong to and live in.” (Birgit Severin) “We create narrative objects which reflect about past and present while opening up to alternative futures. ” (Guillaume Neu-Rinaudo) Studio B Severin explores culture and society by re-designing objects and materials. The studio is based in Berlin and run by the French-German duo Birgit Severin and Guillaume Neu-Rinaudo. Objects are extensions of our body and mind, making this connection explicit is the aim of “studio b severin”s design approach. Based on research, taking psychological, anthropological, and philosophical questions into account, the outcomes are objects which through their function and aesthetic transmit their implicit message. Their work has been shown nationally and internationally at prestigious museums, biennales, and fairs. The studio collaborates with curators, galleries, and companies while sharing their vision and thoughts workshop and lectures.
