A LAMPSHADE TO DIGNIFY DUST

Dust. It is everywhere around us, but we fail to notice it. Yasuhito Hirose became fascinated with the effect (sun)light will have on dust: it will make it sparkle and whirl. This has inspired him to create a lamp that will attract dust. As the lampshade’s threads, charged with static electricity, become covered in layers of dust, they will take on the appearance of soft, fluffy cotton. Dust Shade has allowed Hirose to capture the beauty of dust.
