There is nothing prickly about Ray Power’s characterful Kactos lamp. With its cactus-like silhouette, the tactile, nature-inspired Kactos is available in both suspension and table versions.
To create the shape, panels of wood veneer are arranged in a vertical concave fashion around the light source and held in place by an acrylic frame. Each piece of veneer beautifully reflects the light from within this pleasing lamp.
Available in pendant and table versions. The table version, with ceramic base, is available in black or white.
LZF Lamps, founded in 1994 near Valencia by Mariví Calvo and Sandro Tothill, pioneered “enveloping light” in wood veneer. Today, the brand crafts sculptural, sustainable designs that blend artistry and warmth, celebrated worldwide.
Irish-born designer Ray Power has collaborated with LZF Lamps since 1998. With an inventive approach to lighting design, he has created many of LZF’s best known lights. Ray’s Air (2008), Link (2007) and New Wave (2015) lamps for LZF were awarded the Red Dot, Chicago Good Design and Chicago Green Good Design awards respectively. Most recently, his Swirl pendant was accorded a 2017 Special Mention by the German Design Council. Ray’s work has been exhibited on the international stage: in Milan, Valencia, Dublin, Madrid and Tokyo. His trademark style is based on geometry and he shows an inherent propensity to create stirring three-dimensional forms with flat materials.
