Dessinée par Jasper Morrison pour la marque Flos, Oplight est une applique à lumière indirecte à la fois discrète et élégante. Elle se compose d’un corps en aluminium moulé sous pression avec revêtement poudre et d’un diffuseur en polycarbonate moulé par injection semi-transparent. L’applique design Oplight est équipée d’une source LED à haute efficacité avec une durée de vie de plus de 50 000 heures. À la fin de son cycle de vie, la source LED peut être facilement remplacée sur place par un installateur professionnel. Editée par Flos, Oplight est une lampe évolutive car aucune colle n’est utilisée pour assembler ses différentes parties. Le produit peut donc être séparé, remplacé individuellement et recyclé séparément.
Born in London in 1959, Jasper Morrison studied at the Royal College of Art in London and continued his studies at the Berlin School of Fine Arts. In 1986, Jasper Morrison set up his own design studio in London. He attracted attention with the clear concepts of his installations "Reuters News Center" at documenta 8 in Kassel and "Some new items for the home" at the DAAD gallery in Berlin, which presented objects with highly refined lines in reaction to the formal exuberance of postmodernism. He became the pioneer of the "New Simplicity": a concept translated into a design imbued with simplicity and seriousness. His furniture creations include lamps, interior accessories and textiles, as well as a tramway for the city of Hanover and a bus stop for the Vitra site. Jasper Morrison adopts a rationalist approach to manufacturing processes and advocates an aesthetic devoid of superfluous details. This 'super normal' design has won over many manufacturers (Canon, Sony) and design brands such as Alessi, Flos (the Glo-Ball lamp), Cappellini (the surprising Thinking Man's Chair), SCP and Vitra, which gives a prominent place to its pieces in the Vitra Home range, including the Cork stools in natural cork.
