Ingo Maurer’s SoHo space was the site for new lighting during ICFF. The Tu-Be pendant light that Maurer designed with Ron Arad featured toothpaste tubes in much profusion. There were plenty of versions of the snakelike Alizzcooper lamp in pendant, table and floor models. Some were even threatening the rats in the Seven Rats installation created in honour of the year of the rat, a time of plenty and a good time for new beginnings. All of Maurer’s new pieces are a delight to take in, but the Early Future table lamp and the Flying Future overhead are of special note. Maurer worked in conjunction with Osram to create pieces that use modules of organic light emitting diodes, a new polymer technology.
