Who Says Mathematicians Don't Have a Sense of Style?

I have always believed that science and design go hand-in-hand. We get much of our design aspects from nature - usually the oddities tend to make things seem less organic, but they still exist naturally. Not to mention the fact that most of what we design wouldn't be possible if it weren't for the engineers behind the machinery and technology that we use to create art.



That said, I would love to have this Raimond Suspension lamp designed by a mathematician for Moooi that I found at Dwell. The electrical current that lights the LEDs transmits through the frame itself where each light connects to another piece of the the stainless steel frame. Don't you feel smarter already? I definitely do.
