KUKUNARI - the greek word for pine cone – is a wooden lamps series inspired by the pine cone's structure where the “leaves” form a number of spirals that belong to fibonacci sequence. Pinecone represents the human enlightment, the pineal gland, called the third eye, linked to body's perception of light.

KUKUNARI's design is parametric, based on a code that allows many design outcomes, with the opportunity of custom-made designs adjusted to each space's needs. It is a combination of computational design and digital fabrication along with handcraft finishing techniques. The first KUKUNARI collection consists of pendant lights mainly, in different sizes and limited editions of floor and wall lamps. Made of laser cut plywood parts, combined with fabric coated wire and assempled by the designer. Each KUKUNARI is unique, fabricated with care and comes with an engraved serial number.
