Currently a student at Victoria University in Wellington, studying design innovation, Lee Woodman's design ideology is heavily weighted toward a sustainable new way of living that does not need to imply restriction or compromise. He began his career in the construction industry at age 17, and since then he has completed both carpentry and joinery apprenticeships.

His Crane lamp embraces materiality and tactility, luring the user to touch, adjust and experience the light. The lamp can be extended for use about a chair or retracted for a more ambient light. As transport for products is an increasing concern, Woodman has designed a case specifically catered to the Crane lamp, allowing it to be transported safely. The Crane lamp is not intended for mass production, but rather, is intended to be celebrated as a fine piece of furniture, a limited edition object to be cherished for generations to come.
