BUTLER P
For one of the ranges launched at
Light+Building in 2016, we joined forces with
renowned artist / designer Arik Levy. The result
is Butler, a surprising collection of exterior and
interior luminaires.
Arik Levy is an artist, technician, photographer,
designer, video artist... his skills are multi–
disciplinary and his work can be seen in
prestigious galleries and museums worldwide.
The Butler is the first design by Arik for
Delta Light®.
The fine line between the indoor territory and
outdoors today is blurrier than ever. Furniture
and indoor living elements are drifting outdoors
in style and function. The experience, comfort
and style of our living rooms is extended to our
garden.
The inspiration for this collection was a
coincidence of different elements, and a
physical metaphor. On one hand it’s a re-
interpretation of a well-known archetype, the
most obvious classic lamp shade as we know it
for many many years.
The coincidental element came from Arik
cycling through Paris years ago, passing by
a big pile of folded paper, used to create the
well-known plissé fashion classics. While its
zig-zag shape recalls the past, it also creates a
unique play of light. During the day the natural
light enhances its form and creates shadow all
around the shade... at night the light emitted
casts a cozy and intimate light wherever the
Butler is installed.
