A capsule collection of art lamps and decor by MAKHNO studio, which conveys the fluidity of forms and new design principles.
CONCEPT
“Lehit” in Ukrainian means a light warm breeze that brings spring and renewal. Similarly, the new MAKHNO collection offers a fresh look at the shape and organization of objects in space. Now they convey lightness and variability, as if floating in the air, radiating radiance, inspiring everything around with the heavenly beauty of their being.
LEHIT introduces the idea of dynamics, continuous movement, which is manifested both in the smooth, flying forms of the lamps and in the revolutionary principle of arranging QUADROPOD art blocks to create three-dimensional art walls, niches, shelves and other structural and decorative elements.
