Meet The Cord Family

The Cord Family is a celebration of form driven by physics. The series began as an exercise to simplify Jean Prouvé’s classic Potence lamp by using the fixture's electrical cord in place of the guy wire. The result is a pleasing symmetry between the structural elements. The family utilizes the principle of tensegrity, or floating compression, where the compression of the steel arm resists the tension of the cloth electrical cord to hold the custom ceramic socket aloft.

The push and pull of this tensegrity fixture holds hand cast ceramic sockets aloft. The ceramic sockets cradle candelabra-base bulbs, creating a constellation that is suited to residential and commercial spaces alike. Metal rods. Cloth covered electrical cord.
