Description from the seller
Matrix Otto Suspension Lamp - Lumina - Yaacov Kaufman (2000)
A Contemporary Industrial Masterpiece
Introduce a touch of contemporary design history into your home with this stunning Matrix Otto Suspension Lamp, a recognized icon designed by the visionary Yaacov Kaufman for the prestigious Italian brand Lumina. First introduced in 2000, this striking piece is built around cleverly engineered adaptable arms and a distinctive industrial aesthetic.
Sculptural Versatility for Grand Spaces
More than just a light source, the Matrix Otto is a sculptural pendant light designed to visually and luminously fill large volumes. Think grand halls, galleries, or exhibition spaces. It features 8 adjustable stainless steel arms that radiate from a central articulated hub. These arms can be individually manipulated to direct light in any direction—horizontally, upwards, or downwards—giving you unparalleled control over the lighting distribution and atmosphere. The collection of naked bulbs creates a beautiful counterpoint to the brushed nickel-effect finished structure, a blend of steel and aluminum alloy.

About designer: Yaacov Kaufman
Yaacov Kaufman (born 1945) is a central and highly influential figure in the international and Israeli industrial design landscape. A longtime professor at the prestigious Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem, Kaufman has trained generations of designers. With an initial background in sculpture, his work constantly moves on the thin line between art and pure design, often interpreted as a philosophical reflection on the creative process itself. His design philosophy stands out for deep research on ergonomics and structures in motion, elements that are clearly reflected in the engineering brilliance of the adaptable arms in the Matrix collection, created for Lumina in 2000. His works are characterized by an aesthetic that balances minimalism and sculptural functionality, and they have been exhibited in over twenty solo shows in world-renowned museums, such as the Design Museum in London and the Tel Aviv Museum of Art, as well as being included in major permanent collections, including that of the Israel Museum in Jerusalem. Over the course of his prolific career, Kaufman has collaborated with numerous top-tier Italian and European design brands, including Arflex, Tecno, and, indeed, Lumina, receiving prestigious awards like the Sandberg Prize.
