XY-Quad and X-Pan by Victor Vetterlein
Victor Vetterlein has recently completed two new designs: the xy-quad table and x-pan light. The xy-quad table is made from an aluminum base with a glass table top.
The design of the base is based on “a rational forest.” Four X’s form the canopy (table top), and four Y’s are used for the trunks (legs). XY-Quad is suitable for indoor or outdoor use, and available in a black or white.
As for the X-Pan, it allows the user to manually adjust the amount of emitted light. Using 14 watt torpedo compact fluorescent lamps and two brass sleeved connector rods that allow the lamp shields to be opened or closed with ease, this ceiling light is the best alternative to a dimmer switch. You can manage to double the amount of light by adjusting the lamp in the open position. If you need less amount of light you just close the lamp and the light is focused downward. This is what we call “manual light mutation.”
