Aaro Table Lamp

Table lamp in steel and aluminium. The starting point of Aaro was a gesture. A movement. Simon Schmitz wanted to create an as fluid motion as possible, which immediately lead him to the sphere. The end result is an object that seems to be moved by the wind. It revolves effortless around it's centerpiece, like planets orbiting around each other.
Simon, born in Arnsberg (West Germany), set up his studio in Hamburg after completing his studies at the School of Art .
There he discovered the freedom, autonomy and responsibility to be a designer. Here's your workshops, here's a pen, go on then. .This taught him everything he needed to know about form, materials, processes and most importantly: the context. If you don't know why you are doing what you are doing, don't bother doing it at all.
