Based on the discipline of characters and words, the Typography is a lighting system that allows for infinite combinations of its components, creating endless expressions.

A lighting system of great flexibility and creativity, the Typography lighting system is inspired by how characters create words, sentences, and eventually shape a design language. The words are in your hands; you can arrange them as you please through the 7 pieces that go along a vertical or horizontal axis.

The system is inspired by the way letters form words, and how these can be arranged in relationships to form a language of expression.

quote from studiotrulytruly.com

 

The central axis, a thin advanced rail, allows each light to move freely. Each piece of Typography can be placed on four sides of the axis and is controlled independently from the rest. The rails can then be combined, forming a whole new dimension of Types where the expressions are endless.

The great strength of the system is its flexibility, both in terms of form and function. By using the right combination of pieces, it can fit in almost any type of space and can instantly make an impact.

The Types come in black and gold. The design gives you the option to use them as a pendant, wall lamp, or even a group lighting system that covers a wider area. Mixing and matching the pieces has no limits or guidelines, design as you please, and make your own lights. There is however an inspiration pdf by Rakumba and Studio Truly Truly that can give you some ideas on what Type is suited for what kind of space. (download here)
