MGX by MaterialiseAlgue.MGX
The Algue.MGX was presented at the Salone del Mobile in Milan in April. The organic shaped lamp combines two state-of-the-art technologies: a LED light source and 3D stereolithography printing. Just like all other .MGX designs, it also combines the best of traditional and contemporary craftsmanship, each Algue.MGX is individually created and hand-finished.
The ornamental lamp seems to undulate following the streams and moving fluids in our environment. The Algue.MGX is a lit evocation of the abyssal depths of our oceans. "The Algue.MGX arose as a result of a chat over coffee between Xavier and myself about the classic novel 'Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea' by Jules Verne, and the fantastical shapes that can be created using 3D printing technologies. The Algue.MGX for me is a fantasy come to life," Alessio Esposti, Art Director, .MGX.
