This texture was informed by Vel\u010dovský’s childhood memories of making mountain sculptures with crinkled paper.<\/p>\n “The shape itself looks like a model of a volcano as if it were created by a small child, who made it from crumpled paper and placed a lightbulb inside,” said Vel\u010dovský, Lasvit’s creative director.<\/p>\n “I wanted to create a symbol of the volcano – a pyramid shaped by means of crumpling and deforming sheets so that I might be able to create a specific surface structure which would diffract light,” he added. “It is thus a little model volcano hailing from our volcanic lands which went extinct long ago.”<\/p>\n Product: <\/strong>Volcano About VDF products fair:<\/strong> the VDF products fair<\/a> offers an affordable launchpad for new products during Virtual Design Festival<\/a>.
