Mendori is a lamp created by designer Issey Miyake in 2012 for Artemide.
The lamp is part of the IN-EI series, whose shadows are made using mathematical principles.
A real invention on the part of Issey Miyake. A series of suspension, table and floor lamps that are crossed by beautiful shades of light. The other absolutely fascinating aspect of the project are the folds that characterize the lamps: they are made through a technology that is an invention of the designer and that makes them somehow unique. They are made from a recycled material that lets in more light than paper, but at the same time is rigid enough that the lamps don’t need an internal structure. When not in use, they can be folded back on themselves. An ode to modernity and eco-design, which overcomes the barriers of classic and traditional lamps.
