Heavy pendant tall, 2008
Heavy pendant tall by Benjamin Hubert for Decode.
Heavy Light encapsulates a material focused approach to the design process, a signature of Benjamin Hubert’s work. As one of his first collaborations, Heavy Light was designed to push the potential of what is typically an industrial material, as well as challenge perceptions of inherent value.
Developed in close collaboration with a specialist producer in East Germany, it is illustrative of the perfect balance between innovative manufacture and visual simplicity. Each concrete shade is individually slip-cast and left inverted in the mould to dry for a number fo days. During this process, random air pockets and veining develop on the interior of the shade. These markings vary from one shade to the next and create unique and irregular marble-like patterns, which contrast with the shade's smooth exterior.
