A Vision of bringing the inside out
The collaboration between DeMakersVan and Fatboy resulted in a series of lamps that redefine outdoor lighting. As Judith de Graauw explains, “The shape language of outdoor furniture and indoor furniture is totally different. We wanted to bring the domestic feeling of being back in your living room, outside.” This vision guided the creation of the Edison lamps, which combine the warmth and coziness of indoor lighting with the resilience required for outdoor use.
DeMakersVan’s work is rooted in a philosophy of storytelling through design. They believe that every product should evoke emotion and tell a story, whether through its form, function, or materials. The Edison and Transloetje lamps reflect this ethos, inviting users to experience the comfort of home in any setting.
