## marten herma anderson draws from childhood experiments Architectural and furniture designer Marten Herma Anderson presents a new series of candy-like **lamps** that translate a childhood memory into a tactile lighting object. The project is driven by a moment he recalls as ‘*a childhood memory of melted candy on a lamp-bulb,*‘ which eventually expanded into a small family of lamps. What began as a playful accident has been shaped into a focused material study. Anderson describes a long-standing fascination with ‘*translucent colour — ice cream wrappers, gummy bears, the way light moves through something that was never meant to glow.*‘ Using resin, he suspends melted pigments to echo the soft collapse of candy under warmth. The shades appear fluid and spontaneous as they hover around the bulb. image © Ragnar Schmuck ## fluid lamps crafted from melted pigments Each of Marten Herma Anderson’s lamps combines glass fiber shades with raw, waxed ceramic bases.…
