Accrete, echoing the natural act of material gathering, reveals light shaped through slow formation.

LIGHTING
Dirk van der Kooij, 2025
Recycled plastic, brass fixtures, LED lighting
Made in Zaandam, NL
The Accrete explores how linear fluting softens the light, while its curved and folded double-wall structure gathers it into gentle peaks and lows. Its surfaces seem to form slowly over time, echoing geological and astronomical accretion. Composed of low-resolution, robot-extruded modules that rotate at each transition, the form shifts as you move around it — a quiet accumulation of parts becoming a single, continuous whole. Working within the constraints of our robot lends the piece a technical, retro-futuristic character, balanced by a warm, radiant glow. A tactile brass button at the deepest point of the top module controls dimming and power.

Can we order a color once it is out of the collection?
Generally, you can order discontinued colors for up to 3–5 years. However, due to the use of reclaimed synthetics, slight color variations may occur over time.
