Shining Tradition is based on two lamp models by Vico Magistretti. It combines innovative technology, practicality and consistency. Here, concrete elements from peasant painting and the conception of the traditional costume of Lienz converge into the design of a new lamp object combining ceramics, glaze and electronics.

The work was created within the project “Licht” [Light].
