Fields & Big Bangs. August 6, 2007

Big Bang

More big bangs! I’ve mentioned the Big Bang hanging light design by Vicente Garcia Jimenez before, but I never realised that there was a wall mounted version of the design. And, in a similar style to the wall mounted version of Big Bang, Vicente Garcia Jimenez showcased a new design in Milan this year called Fields.

Simple, essential shapes, dampened by rich and intense hues. A composition that provides a fascinating effect of warm, enveloping light and an absolute, linear construction that develops over various layers of crossing, overlapping planes.The design concept originates from a suggestive and moving panoramic, almost aerial, view that pays tribute to the designer’s homeland of Mancha, an area of Spain steeped in contrasts that extends over the fields as far as the eye can see.

Having just spent the last few weeks driving around the Spanish countryside, I can definitely see the influence of the landscape in Fields.
