Mono M400 Pendant Light

Found clinging to a creeper, Mono and his ‘Magicstick’ tumbled to earth, but still manages to work!To give the moon a laugh, the space traveller can vary the intensity of the light Mono givres off. The Magicstick is an On/Off dimmer switch. Mono emanates from the ‘Vantot’ design studio, inventor of VVV. (Esther and Sam, always smiling, always graceful to a T, are two angels who have fallen to earth, landing in Holland).
Esther and Sam, both graduates of the Design Academy of Eindhoven, are partners, both in life and in their studio. They founded their Eindhoven studio in 2014.
Their favourite area to work with is light. They work on their light fittings down to the last detail. They do not just draw. They also prototype and create, sharing a love for mechanics and movement. Their mathematical approach to design encourages them to avoid the obvious, to reinvent objects when they build. When asked what inspires them, they respond without hesitation: “Everything! We are curious. We are inspired by observing the world.”
