Design Centre Stories

Clearly Original

Poliform may be marking 30 years at Design Centre, Chelsea Harbour, but it is still at the cutting edge when it comes to tracking down worldwide talent. New to the showroom is Czech lighting company Bomma, which explores the potential of fragile glass with curiosity and creativity. The deceptively simple shapes of these ‘Phenomena’ lights, their glass shades fading from opaque pastel colours to milky translucency, belie a marriage of modern technology and craftsmanship. They are designed by young design studio Dechem, whose co-founders met at the Novy Bor School of Glass in the Bohemian glassmaking region of the northern Czech Republic.
