Features
Inspired by Op Art
Tom Dixon was inspired by the Op Art movement when he designed the WHIRL shades in 2024. The Op Art movement focused on a visual art style that used distorted or manipulated geometrical patterns to create optical illusions. This movement informed the patterns of the WHIRL shade and its striking optical effect.
Unique Creation Process
Crafted from lightweight yet durable polycarbonate, each WHIRL shade is produced using advanced injection blow moulding and vacuum metallisation. WHIRL blends innovative design, premium materials, and expert craftsmanship to deliver a modern, art-inspired statement lighting piece.
Versatile Design
WHIRL is available in a range of sizes and formations, from portable lamps to show-stopping chandeliers, and comes in both gold and silver finishes. Designed for versatility, every WHIRL shade is compatible with Edison Screw (ES) or LED light fittings, making it effortless to integrate into any setting.
