SUMMARY
The Akari floor lamp is part of the Akari light sculptures, designed in 1951 by the Japanese-American artist. He chose the name ‘Akari’ for these objects, a word that means ‘light’ in Japanese, connoting both illumination and physical lightness.
The inspiration for the design of the Akari lights came from a visit to the Japanese fishing village of Gifu, where he observed fishermen at work. They used not only trained cormorants for hunting, but also lanterns to attract fish. These lanterns had bamboo ribs covered with fine paper.
He took the design of these traditional lanterns to create luminous sculptures made of wood and paper. For the Akari floor lamp, the designer uses mulberry paper because it softens the light, making it gentle and diffusing it evenly.
Note*: To ensure proper installation, please follow these connection guidelines:
