The Essence of Water and the Soul of Brutalism: New Lights from d'Armes

Doppler and 1979 collections, born from collaborations with emerging talents, presented at ICFF 2024

23/05/2024 - Studio d'Armes made a splash at the recent International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York City, unveiling two stunning lighting collections collections with Consors, created in partnership with emerging designers Will Choui and Florian Martin. Pushing the boundaries of high-end lighting design, the Doppler and 1979 collections showcase the power of creative collaboration and the seamless integration of form and function. "Through collaboration, we uplift emerging talents and optimize expertise in lighting design," explains Alexandre Joncas, head designer at d’Armes. "Our focus on authentic design reflects our core values and drives our efforts. Sharing our visions and enjoying creating together, that's what Consors is all about: a mindset that enables innovation in design.” Joncas shared this insight to illuminate the studio's vision behind the two new collaborative collections unveiled at ICFF.

The inaugural collection, Doppler, channels the Doppler effect and reveals artwork that embodies the very essence of water: a brilliant shine associated with fluidity and surprising light reflections. Over several months of communication and knowledge transfer, artist Florian Martin and d’Armes developed this collection. Whether in the forms of singular or triple pendants, floor lamps, or sconces, each Doppler piece beckons exploration of shape and perspective, unlocking a world of creative possibilities. The following collection, titled 1979, emerges as a visual ode to raw beauty and simplicity, blending the divergent standards of utilitarian aesthetic and contemporary design into a seamless tapestry. This collaboration resonates with Choui’s distinctive vision for a 21st-century revival of the brutalist architecture movement. These collections reveal d’Armes’ commitment to innovation, exploration, and sharing while offering a bold glimpse into the future of contemporary design and art.
