“You cannot create experience you must undergo it” Quoting from the prolific writer Albert Camus, the lamp is amanifestation of the dualisms of life. A beacon for the humanexperience the lamp is constructed to be a humble exterior shellteaming with chaotic self reflection. As light penetrates through thevoids of the text, it becomes a symbol of the juxtaposition of our owninternal concepts of existence and the ones we attempt to maintain onthe surface. Continuing the exploration of typography as a means ofdecoration and structure (Dharma Lounge) the Camus floor lamp createssituations where the participant is embraced by the possibilities ofcreating a relationship with the object through denotative andconnotative ideals.
