Following the functionalist aesthetic of the Seagram building located in New York City, this modern lighting piece is a carved block of marble involved by vertical brass blades carefully inserted as an allusion to modern metal structures. The design of the lamp incorporates Mies beliefs that a building’s structure should be visible as an external expression with no decorative elements.
