SEMPITERNUM

Lead Designers Eugenio Armendariz López De Leon

Entry Description

The Sempiternum lamp, named after the Latin word meaning “everlasting,” beautifully captures the concept of eternity through its seamless blend of nature, light, and movement. The outer shell crafted from walnut wood, forms a smooth unbroken curve symbolizing endless flow and continuity. This organic design not only adds warmth but also enhances the sense of timelessness, grounding the user in a calming atmosphere. Inside this elegant frame, lies the lamp’s true essence: An inner disc, delicately sculpted with flowing contours, gracefully catches the warm glow of hidden light, reflecting its soft embrace in gentle waves that evoke a sense of serenity.

As the plate slowly rotates, the warm light interacts with its textured surface, casting gentle, shifting patterns that mimic ripples on calm water. This subtle yet continuous motion, combined with the comforting glow of the warm light, creates an atmosphere of deep relaxation and peace. The design’s fluidity and light work together to transform any space into a tarnquil haven, where time seems to slow, and the user is enveloped in a unique sensory experience.

Sustainability Approach

The Sempiternum lamp incorporates sustainability through its careful selection of materials and thoughtful design. It combines natural and renewable materials with energy-efficient technology to offer a product that is both elegant and environmentally conscious; always looking for a circular process of live.

The use of aluminum for the inner rotating plate also supports sustainability; it is produced from scrap material, which was melted down in a mold to give the aluminum a second life. Aluminum is lightweight, durable, and highly recyclable, making it an eco-friendly choice. By using these materials, the Sempiternum lamp ensures longevity and reduces resource consumption throughout its life cycle.
