Entry Description

Morfoza is a unique and versatile luminaire that redefines the boundaries of light and visual perception. The fixture offers an immersive, interactive experience by playing with optical illusions, using light to challenge conventional ideas of color, form, and visual perception. It uses only white light and transparent filters, revealing the hidden spectrum of colors naturally contained within.
This design is the result of our ongoing investigation into optics . By rotating the front filter, users can adjust the colors and brightness, creating a personalized lighting experience. Employing filters typically used in scientific applications, combined with simple materials like plastic film and white light, we developed an innovative and patented solution. Morfoza challenges users to rethink their everyday environment and question the nature of reality: What is real? How much of "reality" do we truly perceive?
Morfoza reflects our multidisciplinary approach, blending art, design, science, and engineering. Its versatility is further enhanced by its interchangeable filters and disks, allowing users to easily customize their lighting effects.
Morfoza adapts to its users' constantly changing moods and needs. Its wide range of 3D light and color effects, from organic to geometric patterns, ensures it can seamlessly integrate into different environments and atmospheres.
Sustainability Approach

Morfoza is designed with sustainability at its core. It features high-efficiency LEDs with a long lifespan, which can be easily replaced. The luminaire's customizable design offers five distinct light effects through interchangeable filters, making it feel like owning five lamps in one, further enhancing its long-term versatility.
It incorporates the highest quality of optical filters, durable aluminum, and recycled Plexiglas, ensuring both quality and environmental responsibility. The lamp's structure is built from rolled aluminum profiles, which significantly reduces material waste. Further, Morfoza is made to order, which helps prevent excess production and ensures that each piece is tailored to individual needs.
This combination of long-lasting components, eco-friendly materials, emotional value and efficient manufacturing makes Morfoza a sustainable choice for modern lighting design
