Michaela Crie Stone lives and works in Rockport, Maine, where she creates pieces that push the parameters of function by blurring the lines between art, craft, and design.
The Orbicular lamp by Nervous System is a series of table lamps based on how veins form in leaves. Each lamp is a completely one-of-a-kind design 3D-printed in nylon plastic with its own unique form and pattern of veins. The lamps are lit by eco-friendly LED’s and cast dramatic branching shadows on the wall and ceiling. The bubbly, globular shapes of hematite and other minerals that grow in a botryoidal habit inspired this sphere aggregation system.
