We had the distinct pleasure to interview award winning designer Luca Matta about their original and creative lamp design work. Luca Matta is an award-winning industrial designer, that makes our world a better place with their original lamp works.
Luca Matta ("LM") answered Design Interview ("DI") questions about their award-winning work infinity lamp. Interview questions prepared by Frank Scott.
LM : I was inspired by a very simple, brick, one of the fundamental elements of human construction
LM : The main objective is to give the user the opportunity to build his own "habitat", his "home" starting from a single element such as brick. In particular I would like watching people play with the design by creating new sensations and emotions
LM : I care that my product is carried out and understood by people.
LM : It took me a little time. In 2 days I was already satisfied with the idea and the concept that I had sketched on the sheet.
LM : I wish there was a company interested in making this type of product, which I think is very innovative in its gender
LM : The passion and the desire to see my ideas realized. There are thousands of them that I left on the paper without having made!
LM : Good question ..... if I knew I would have already presented my projects to some company ....
LM : Infinity doesn’t mean just that you can create countless shapes and differents from other shapes, but above all Infinity means to create together with people, participate and collaborate with people who maybe doesn’t know anything about the design .... but at the end the design has a purpose in society, even if you do not think, and that is to know and respect each other despite being different.
LM : I am one of those "of the middle generation", so I use paper and pencil and then the personal computer. I still can not design without going through the paper ...
LM : You already know by now that the functionality and the esthetic aspect are the foundations of this discipline, but for me the game and the interaction between people is a very important thing, so I'd like to analyze this concept very well ... if they give me the chance to do it!
LM : The "brick" light uses LED technology, which is now well established in the market for over 8 years.
LM : I love a great movie, which ultimately is a classic, but it made me feel strong emotions especially at the beginning: 2001 Space Odyssey. This movie represents our history and belongs to us as the human race. The trigger element is obviously the monolith, for me is that our brick, our civilization, our history, our progress.
LM : I can’t worth wasting, imagine if every person in the world throw themselves away; what a pity, it would be a sad world and repressed. If someone feels he has the qualities and the ideas must do everything to achieve them ....
LM : I will learn more when, hopefully, this product will be implemented.
