The Studio K desk lamp was first manufactured by Planet Lighting in 1962. It won an Australian Design Award, and was on display at the Louvre in Paris and the MoMA in New York. Planet Lighting are about to launch the first ever Australian designed and manufactured LED desk lamp the Studio K LED, to commemorate the 50 years since the first Studio K was released.
To celebrate this milestone current Planet Lighting designer Sinclair Park has created a light “birthday cake”, consisting of 16 of the new Studio K LED lamps. The sculpture features dynamic lighting show with an industrial soundscape, and the latest in LED technology.
The piece will be featured as part of VIVID SYDNEY at Circular Quay, along with other light sculptures from around the world.
