Elijah Roth is an industrial designer and 3D artist based in Brooklyn, NY. Born in Portland, Oregon, he has a background in art and is otherwise self-taught. In 2024 he opened the studio Certain Rain, focusing on lighting fixture design.
The Netto lamp was the first design released by Certain Rain. It launched the studio and set the tone for the visual and material direction.
The Netto has a strong visual presence despite having a very small footprint of 2.75”x 4.25”. It was envisioned for small apartments, for users who love collecting objects of adoration, but also have a desire for order and organization.
The diffuser design is a three-part assembly in photopolymer resin, printed using stereo lithography. A 10% mixture of white dye is added to the resin to acheive a translucent appearance.
