Folk Lamps

  • Avril O'Neil

As a part of our consultancy ONN Studio, we were commissioned by Folk to design and build a set of interior lamps. The system was modular, using the same lamp head and a bespoke clamp system, which could be configured to make desk, floor, or chandelier arrangements. I was particularly involved in the product photoshoot, project management, the production line and quality control. We made over 100 lamps in our workshop, working with UK-based brass craftsmen for the cast lamp heads and clamps, oak dowel from Nottingham and off cuts from a marble quarry in Italy for the lamp bases. This created a bespoke and sustainable product.
