Chromo Lamp by Mut Design Lifts Spirits with Chromotherapy. Now available in Wallpaper* Store

At this years Salone del Mobile, Spanish studio Mut Design presented a lighting project at Wallpaper* Handmade Exhibition in cooperation with the Czech Cristal Company Preciosa

Mut Design sheds light onto the ancient belief in the healing powers of color through a small collection of Art Deco-inspired sculptural table lamps, manufactured in partnership Prague-based Preciosa Lighting.

Recently revealed as part of Wallpaper* Handmade, the Chromo table lamp was displayed amongst other furniture and accessories for a curated exhibition titled, “Wellness & Wonder.” Now the Lamp is exclusively available in Wallpaper Store.

Each lamp is comprised by a large colored glass piece and a set of curved glass pipes wrapped around a central metal U. A neon tube hidden at the center in coordination with LED lights at the base of the glass pipes project a mood-enhancing glow.

The lamps are constructed in the oldest known region of the Czech Republic in Bohemia, renowned for their unmatched glassmaking abilities. Preciosa craftsmen were guided by the modernist directions of Spanish studio MUT to apply their traditional chandelier and crystal jewelry manufacturing skills to produce these graphic expressions of light.

Chromotherapy's claims to influence the body both psychologically and physiologically according to different colors is best greeted with skepticism. It's notably different from the scientifically tested and proven application of light known as phototherapy (aka light therapy), which is used medically to help those afflicted by seasonal affective disorders and circadian-related issues like jet lag, light therapy's benefits are well documented.

In the case of the Chromo lamp, it's advisable to appreciate these designs simply for their beauty, attributing to the observation good design, like the appearance of a colorful rainbow after the rain, can lift the spirits in its own way.
