Another of the Coral's offspring, the Floral shares the materials and the basic structure, but is a flowery evolution.
With the increase of curved forms in the structure the lit inner faces become more obvious the shadowed foreground.
Floral is more organic in look and feel, less geometric with curves adding to the playfulness of the design, also evident in the shadows thrown onto the wall when lit.
For less formal, maybe even more feminine settings, FLORAL is stunning.

David Trubridge is a visionary. Unlike most of us he can translate those visions into something functional.
David's sculptural wooden furniture and lighting is a new world mix of old world skills and craftsmanship, sustainability of materials and purity combined with some high-tech genius.
All of David's pieces are immediately evident in their purpose, but within the seeming economy of material and fluid shapes resides their true functionality.
David's Coral Lamp combines repeat patterned CNC cut plywood with a hint of Escher to produce a geometrically pleasing form, both pure in design and practical in purpose.
My ideas come from the wild places, edges of turbulence and renewal, where seas break on beaches and headlands, where land and air meet on mountain ridges.
I make forms of elemental simplicity, as the erosion of air and water on wood
and stone, forms that speak of humanities survival on earth, of lifes fragility and dependence, of comfort in the ways of the past that have succoured us and optimism for a sustainable and enriching future.
