Pieke Bergman Design Virus

Claire Sullivan - Tuesday, August 11, 2009

 

 

 

As part of his ongoing Design Virus project Pieke Bergman presented a series of Light Bulbs at the Milan Fair earlier this year. Bergman uses the idea of an infection or virus mutating the lightbulb. Like with an infection, the older the product the more susceptible it is: old and tired lamps surrendering their bulbs to gravity. A desk lamp giving up on life, its last gasp forming the bulb.
