Ksenia Derevianko won Silver in the international competition Feel Design Prize

Feeel Design World Prize – award for designers and creative people who build material environment. Feeel Design company, together with an international team of professionals, has created a platform for the implementation of bold design ideas with the use of natural materials. We aim to create small series and individual items that will not break, won’t be thrown away, and will last for decades, pleasing the owner’s eye. In this competition we strive to get away from fashion, trends, move beyond marketing and get back to artistic design, which is object design in fact.

My task was to rethink everyday objects that we are used to seeing from metal and plastic and create an analog of density from wood.  As a result, I decided to make a desk lamp.  Everything in this lamp is made of wood, the smallest details except for the light bulb and the wire.
