Do only the design-minded notice the lighting when they walk into a
room? Melbourne-based designer
Volker Haug strives to ensure his ideas
are essential and deliberate features — hanging from ceilings, attached
to walls and placed on tabletops. From a young age Haug’s
preference for raw, industrial lighting design emerged.
The ‘Antler’ series primarily in black and white consists of a range of
configurations the most intricate he calls ‘Rudolf.’ And
‘Cable Jewelry,’ the long pendant, can be curved and bent to suit
personal preferences. Haug has discovered that the potential lighting
can have on our lives is limitless.
