Terra Lighting Collection
The minimalist design of the Terra Collection was conceived by OEO Studio, a well-established design partner of Mater. The collection comprises of a pendant lamp, a wall lamp, and a portable lamp.The collection is our first lighting series made of Matek™ and its design is a direct result of the possibilities offered by Matek™.
The production method enables the seamless integration of joints and technical elements within the lamps. The design is minimalist, precise, and timeless, while the tactility of the Matek™ material lends the series a fresh and intriguing expression.
Matek™ is an innovative and unique circular material that transforms waste into design, combining natural fibers with a binder to create furniture - and now lighting. The fibers come from upcycled sources such as coffee bean shells from the roasting process and sawdust generated during wood production. The binder is derived from recycled plastic or a plastic-based alternative. The result is a unique composite material ideal for press moulding,a well-established technique in the furniture industry..
”The design is inspired by the possibilities offered by Matek™. It is minimalist, precise, and timeless. The simple conical form is harmoniously balanced, contrasting with the tactile nature of the Matek™ material. This gives the series a fresh and intriguing expression compared to what is typically seen in the lighting market,” says Thomas Lykke of OEO Studio”
