Mart Van Schijndel lamp 1978
Mart Van Schijndel was a Dutch architect (1943-1998) who worked and lived in Utrecht, Holland.
We have found 2 lamps : a huge folded metal light named "SLACK" designed in 1978.Pictures of this light object will follow later on. (it's really hard to make good pictures of this lamp)
The second one (see pictures above) is a smaller sized metal table lamp that looks like a skyscraper.It also reminds us of the "Signal"floor lights by Serge Mouille.
All the lamps were made under the label Martech, the architects own company, and were produced in very small editions in artisanal ateliers.
We love the lamps and their story, so sorry guy's, these lamps are not for sale.....
