In the spotlight: Muuto’s Rime lighting campaign
Good things come in pairs – Muuto's Rime pendant spreads cheer in the dining space, either on its own or in the presence of a luminous companion.
WITH ITS ACORN-LIKE SHAPE, the Rime lighting series depicts a mindset characteristic of TAF Studio: ingenuity can transform everyday objects into extraordinary things. Spearheaded by Gabriella Gustafson and Mattias Ståhlbom, the architecture and design studio's point of departure for the Rime lamp family was a simple, soft form of expression.
Nature has found its way to the glass shade's surface, which mimics the appearance of ice and rime. The ruggedly handsome Ridge vase is the work of Wesley Walters and Salla Luhtasela.
Thanks to its elegant form and serene glow, dispersed through sandblasted glass, the smaller Rime pendant is a dashing choice on top of a bedside table.
In addition to its gentle form, nature has found its way to the glass shade's surface, in tune with the pendant's name – it mimics the appearance of ice and rime, and disperses soft light to the surroundings. Found in the selection of Danish design house Muuto, the Rime pendant fuses a sandblasted glass shade with a subtle top-part, finessed with a powder-coated surface that is colour-matched with the pendant tube and cord.
The understated top-part plays an important role, as it allows the mouth-blown glass shade to take center stage. While the modern Rime lamp is a pleasure to behold as the sole luminaire atop a dining table, several shapes and color options make it easy to create a gathering of multiple pendants, perhaps in a jolly row in the hallway.
Why not let lighting add intrigue with a dash of daring color – the earthy orange tone brings warmth to any space.
With its gentle light, Rime pendants leave space for creative thoughts in an office surrounding. Muuto's 70/70 table is another one of TAF Studio's designs.
With plenty of treats for Nordic lighting design lovers, Muuto's fall campaign also includes the Leaf lamp collection by design duo Broberg & Ridderstråle. Offering a down-to-earth glow to any living space or home office area, the Leaf table and floor lamps enchant with an organic, leaf-like shape.

For a limited time, Finnish Design Shop is offering 20% off Muuto's Rime pendants as well as Leaf table and floor lamps. The campaign is valid until 29 September 2021.
