THE RAIMOND LAMP is a mathematical
marvel of perfectly measured stainless steel
triangles. Its creator, Raimond Puts, has been
busy developing the concept of this extraor-
dinary lamp for great part of his life. It all
started with the discovery of the geometric
shape of a football that brought him to
consider round shapes formed by triangles.
Hundreds of stainless steel strips intersect
creating triangles that converge into a
perfectly round globe. The poetry of a sphere
composed of straight lines. His love for the
absolute and fundamental sciences inspired
questions that tickled him for years, until the
Raimond lamp as we know it was finalized
and became part of the Moooi collection in
2009. Authentic and extremely complex at
the same time. The Raimond lamp: a perfect
sphere of mathematical ingredients punctu-
ated by tiny LED lights. Looking at the lamp
feels like staring into the soft glow of a starry
night. Into the essence.
