Alena Mironenko, designer It is worth to go!

Olga Sukhanova, creator and head of the online magazine about beauty, fashion and celebrities I represent author's at Moscow Design WeekA series of light decorative objects for the interior Crevice. At the heart of the concept of luminaires is the image of a dark room in which the door is slightly opened - and light penetrates through the gap. The outer surface is covered with black glaze, which allows the lamps to merge as much as possible with the darkness. LEDs are hidden, and light, reflected from the inner bright white surface, is knocked out - there is the illusion that light comes from nowhere.
