Foscarini's inverted room aims
to subvert expectations of light forms
Shedding light on human perception, the Reverse Room
installation, which premiered during Milan Design Week 2018,
challenges conventional understanding of space and light design.
The inverted installation is a collaboration between Foscarini
and artist and architect James Wines-founder of SITE-along
with his daughter Suzan Wines.
The tilted space features dark walls and upside-down
monochrome furniture with pendant lights that seemingly spring
from the floor. The surrealist experience aims to provoke
discussions about how our environmental stimuli play into our
design conventions.
The installation also serves as a launch for "The Light
Bulb Series," a limited-edition collection designed by James Wines,
which features five different twists on the traditional light bulb

archetype. Inspired by his architectural research on actions
and reactions to the environment, Wines's reinterpretations
include Black Light, Candle Light, Melting Light, Plant Light,
and White Light. The project is the result of a decades-long
relationship between Foscarini and Wines that nods to their
first lighting collaboration in 1991.
"This series comes from the idea of disrupting the classic
design of incandescent light bulbs-an idea that suggests a
critical reflection on the absolutely non-iconic forms of modern
LED lamps," Wines says. "The concept, implemented by Foscarini,
stems from research on the spontaneous way people identify
with forms and functions of everyday objects. In this case,
the light bulbs merge, crack, shatter, burn out, overturning
any expectations." -CODY CALAMAIO
