Tinkering Light by Joost van Bleiswijk for Moooi.

Extraordinary designers work hard to seek the unexpected. In their workshops, they take their time to repeatedly play, discover and revise. It’s an approach that perfectly describes Moooi’s new design by Joost van Bleiswijk. Joost spent days tinkering on a rhythmic installation of lamps while searching for unusual ways of capturing and reflecting light. The result is craftsmanship at its finest and is a symbol of curiosity: to go against all set conventions, rules and trends.

Tinkering comes in two sizes and is made from metal and brass shades. It has no internal electrical wires as it is powered through Electrosandwich® by Marcel Wanders, Moooi’s proprietary technology. As of today, Tinkering by Joost van Bleiswijk for Moooi is available worldwide.

“I crafted Tinkering specifically for my house, it’s a very personal object,” says Joost van Bleiswijk. “The process of making and discovering the right construction dictates my design. It is revealed to me whenever I put materials together with screws or glue, or tear pieces of cardboard to create a shape. I appreciate the rawness or irregularity of the material and let my craftsmanship follow these elements when I’m creating”.
