Secha  Lighting System
2025

The Secha lamp is composed of an array of curved aluminum sheets surrounding a frosted acrylic diffuser. 

The lamp constructs an organic form through structural geometry.

The lamp is constructed from interlocking fins (3) joined by a brackets (2,4) and hidden by a cap on top(1). Four countersunk screws secure the brackets and fins, while an additional bracket (6) below provides a second point to stabilize. 

The assembly sits on top of a polycarbonate diffuser (6) secured to an aluminum lower cap (7) which connects to the steel rod, leading to the base.

The Secha lamp started as a commision for a vintage boutique Benthos, in Chinatown.

The form was inspired by the wooden structure used to create Japanese paper lantern shades.

The lamp was designed to be completely dissasembled and fit into a 14”x14”x8” box.

A custom floor dimmer was developed, featuring an on/off button and dimming dial. A matching aluminum dial and cover plate attach to the top of an insulating plastic housing, 

The floor lamp version was adapted to a ceiling pendant, with an altered shape to accommodate standard E26 bulbs.
