This series was created by reeling string around a mold the way thread is spun off a cocoon. The softness of the light reminiscent of a traditional Japanese portable lantern (Bonbori) is enhanced by the light coming through the double and triple shelters, and brings to mind the image of the light depicted in Junichiro Tanizaki's: In Praise of Shadows (In-ei Raisan) Inspired by butterfly cocoons. Hade made in Japan Materials: Glass fibre and aluminium

Size: Shade H 41.8 cm, Shade Dia 43 cm. Bulb: E27 FBA max 1x20W (not included).

After graduating from Tokyo University in 1965, in 1971 he founded his own studio Toyo Ito & Associates, Architects. He has received numerous awards, including the Golden Lion of the International Architecture Exhibition - La Biennale di Venezia, the Royal Gold Medal of the Royal Institute of British Architects, the Pritzker Architecture Prize. In the 70s, he tried to erase the conventional meaning of his works through minimalist tactics, to then develop a lightness in an architecture that resembles air and wind.
