This context drove us to an extraordinarily limited design approach. With 3 basic elements, a thin brass tube typically used in lighting, a linear led source and a flame we have therefore tried to push the material to its limit to fix it over time in all its beauty. The molten material expressed its formal power through stretches and swellings, generating contrasting landscapes as if it would explode in all its essence. It done all of this without shouting or striking gestures, considering the nature of the object and its way of being in space. We therefore inserted the linear light source into the void created by the casting process, to give the material a different role. Howl for us is therefore the echo of a silent scream, of something external to us and born from the desire to generate an emotion in a period of great complexity. Morghen is a multidisciplinary studio that works on the boundaries between design, art and craftsmanship. They rely on techniques passed on by the artisan heritage mixed with experimentation and contemporary materials. Every single piece is conceived, developed and handcrafted in a carefully renovated old carpenter’s shop located in the milanese bovisa district. Every single piece evolves from and assimilates previous theoretical and practical research. Every single piece is unique. Their work encompasses objects, furniture, lighting and spaces. All our lamps can be wired according to each country. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
