Inspired by oceanic microscopic organisms, New Zealand-based designer David Trubridge a striking pendant light fixture made from CNC cut bamboo plywood, and named Navicula.
Here’s a description from the designer’s website,
Navicula is derived from nature, in this case from one of the many microscopic diatoms that float around in the oceans. The flowing, segmented form is shipped as flatpack and assembled on site with push-in nylon clips.
The thin curved pieces of CNC-cut bamboo plywood create a flowing structure that also casts magical patterns. It is lit from within with a row of LED pin-point lights.
