Belle de Nuit, Battery Lamp in white Porcelain and Metal, M, YMER&MALTA, France

A sculpture by day and a light sculpture by night, “Belle de Nuit” combines the delicacy of the thin metal bars and bisque volumes with the practical and modern lighting technology of a battery powered lamp. The choice of materials was crucial to achieve the soft and natural candle light effect with a source in LED. The texture of the ceramic gives to each lamp its singularity. The “Belle de Nuit” finds its origins in the prototyping process of the “Belle de Jour” lamps...

A combination of an innovative material and an intelligent assembly, “Belle de Jour” achieves the perfect balance between a soft translucency and mechanical performance. As with every piece from YMER&MALTA, the design process of “Belle de Jour” starts with an intention, an emotion. On a trip to Bonifacio, Corsica Valérie saw a cliff that sparked her imagination. The image of this cliff, with its multiple stratum of rock, was the genesis for Valérie and Océane to develop the design for this piece, which emerged from a long process of prototyping. The resin and linen composite material of the sheets was developed in the studio. Valérie Maltaverne chose to work with linen as a French reference for the bamboo used in the washi paper of the 50’s Akari series...
