Are you enticed by the allure of unfinished concrete, raw steel, and vintage brick? Does the mere thought of exposed Edison bulbs, open ducting, or wooden beams send a thrill down your spine? If so, prepare to immerse yourself in the captivating world of the Hubbardton Forge Graffiti Pendant. This exceptional lighting fixture exudes a captivating industrial ambiance, seamlessly blending fluid movement with timeless heirloom aesthetics.
Hubbardton Forge designer, Paul Marr-Hilliard speaks about the Graffiti’s earliest design origins, “There was first a process of experimentation with small metal sculptures. I had the idea of movement through a volume of space—as if scrawling out or painting a complicated letter form with a large brush. In the slower turns, the brush stroke gets fatter then accelerates in a different direction and thins out.” Paul goes on to say, “The end design became smooth and free-flowing. The lamping feels a bit industrial, jutting in and connecting the forged metal ‘calligraphy’.”
As challenging as naming a new lighting design can sometimes be, Paul comments, that when it came time to give this fixture a name there was no doubt as to what it should be, “All of the designers lovingly referred to it throughout the development process as the Graffiti. It was a nickname that stuck and won out in the final naming. It was just a perfect fit.
