He often employed materials like lucite, metal, and string to create sculptural and visually dynamic lamps that became iconic of the mid-century modern era. His designs are characterized by their unique forms and ability to cast interesting patterns of light and shadow.

This type of lamp, with its layered, fan-like shade, exemplifies the sculptural approach to lighting design prevalent in the 1950s and 1960s. These pieces were not just functional but also served as decorative art objects, adding a distinct flair to interior spaces.
