Award-winning Tokyo architect Kengo Kuma is renowned for creating a sense of space using light. One of his latest works, Furin, is no exception. The light is made up of a series of aluminium tubes connected to the ceiling in a series of nine, and resembles a large wind chime (furin means “wind bell” in Japanese). An LED light source runs through the coloured tubes creating a gently dispersed light from the moving tubes, which falls in a line across the floor (or other surface), creating a wall of light.

A writer, architect and lighting designer, Kengo Kuma plays with our sense of space, redefining and re-sculpting interior environments through the clever use of light. He is the recent winner of the V&A at the Dundee Competition in Scotland and is renowned for defying conventions. His work is underpinned by a refined simplicity which is evident throughout his major projects, including the Great Bamboo Wall House of Beijing, Kyoto Kokusai Hotel, Tiffany & Co Ginza and Sanlitun SOHO.
