The unshielded light source causes specular glare and relamping appears to require major dis-assembly. For such a primitive lighting result, it displaces an extraordinary volume and footprint. Yes, the fixture does have a very high 'coolness' factor, but can you imagine trying to keep it clean? To me, this work is artful but does not address basic needs that would characterize design.

A far too literal translation of an idea with the result a little clumsy and lacking in form or beauty. The result is entirely unremarkable and looking a little like a 1980's wine rack!
