Moloch
"When I came up with the idea of taking a very famous table lamp from Norway, the Luxo lamp, and multiplying every detail of the lamp by four, it was because back then there weren't many objects capable of illuminating big spaces like lobbies, conference halls, meeting rooms etc. Therefore I thought it would have been more convenient to celebrate and reinterpret an iconic piece from the early 1900s (the Luxo lamp) rather than creating something completely new."
