THE TU-BES
by
INGO MAURER / RON ARAD
The Tu-Be is a collaborative work between Maurer and designer Ron
Arad. The original idea occurred to Arad while working on the design of
a new toothpaste tube. Thirty steel toothpaste tubes are combined with
halogen and LED lights in a work that transmits light through the
toothpaste tubes, but also uses their metal surfaces to reflect light from
the LEDs. available at:

CAPPELLO
designed by: molo design
cappello is lit by LED, shaded by a paper “cap” or cappello in Italian and is set upon a
cylinder of soft white Carrara marble.  The cylinder piece actually comes out of the hole
bored through the marble block-shaped base for Arco, the iconic floor lamp designed
by the Castiglioni brothers and manufactured by Flos. molo’s first lamp designed with the
marble core as a base is called love letter (now sold out) and utilizes a unique double-
sided electroluminescent film as its lighting source.Both lamps are a tribute to the
designers we admire. available at:
