Inspired by origami, the Perch Light by London-based architect and designer Umut Yamac sits perfectly at the intersection of form and function. The paper-folded looking bird light is made from actual synthetic paper and illuminated from the inside. The elegant light is counterbalanced and rocks back and forth at the slightest touch or disturbance in the air. Yamac originally designed the light in 2014 as a limited edition of 20, but recently created a new chandelier-style configuration called the Perch Light Family for Moori. The family of six sculptural lamps celebrate the beauty and poetry of a bird perched on a branch, rocking darkness away when set in motion.
