Diffused light and astro-mathematical geometries for a new lighting design

The Equant lamp by young designer Cecilia Xinyu Zhang, is inspired by the harmony of mathematical concepts describing astronomical processes that are as distant as they are resonant in every living thing

Curved lines for the body of the lamp and its diffuser: a circular opaline glass that can be oriented to provide indirect, diffuse and reflected lighting

The name "Equant" references the mathematical concept developed by Claudius Ptolemy in the 2nd century to explain the motion of the planets
