In this lamp, the illuminating function has become a pretext for the creation of an object with a markedly bold personality. The diffuser of the lamp has a distinctive spherical form made from colored pâte de verre glass that has been mouth-blown into a mold. The palette includes the following shades: amber, tobacco, rose, amethyst, light blue and dove grey. In 2019, the Meltdown lamp was renewed with a new color proposal, which envelops the atmosphere of winter evenings with a soft green light.
Immediately after completing his studies, Johan Lindstén founded his own design studio in Stockholm, in 2008. The broad array of Lindstén's creations ranges from the design of limited edition products (often sold to museums) and high-tech accessories for everyday use such as his sound-absorbing products for Apple, or designer furniture and furnishing elements. Johan Lindstén interprets design as an opportunity to express emotions and thoughts, which he transfers into physical objects that can improve a person's state of mind and better the quality of life, with elements that are visually pleasing, playful and surprising. Unexpected eye-catching details are one of his recurring themes: his products are characterized by simplicity and emotional nuances, giving life to forms that are not just pleasing to the eye, but above all, the expression of sentiment.
The glass used for this lamp is a one-of-a-kind expression of the ancient art of masterful glassmakers; any small air bubbles or variations in the color intensity are due to the artisanal craftsmanship and represent a valuable addition.
