Ada Corten 17

The Japanese ideology of Wabi-Sabi embraces the beauty of the imperfect and the transient grace of ever-changing nature. In Wabi-Sabi, true beauty’s luster grows with time and use. Ada Corten was designed in pursuit of this ideal.

Made of corten, also known as weathering steel, Ada Corten will continue to change in response to its environment, forming a stable rusted patina with continued exposure.

COR-TEN was originally developed and patented by the United States Steel Corporation in the early 1930's for use on railroad hopper cars. The controlled erosion was an unexpected but welcome benefit discovered later on.

Corten’s unique property is that its degradation and rust form a stable protective coating that resists further oxidation.

Revisiting the classic typology of folded sheet metal lamps, we created a sconce that pays homage to Perriand while answering contemporary needs including ADA compliance and wet rating.

With the option to install vertically beside a focal point or horizontally above it, Ada complements its setting rather than distracting from it.

Adjustable friction hinges can be manipulated to cast light when and where you need it, or fixed in place upon request to allow for a consistent visual impression.

Our largest version, the Ada Sconce 25 is equally at home placed vertically alongside the front door or casting a wall-washing light over a vanity mirror.

Fully wet rated, the modern sheet metal construction of Ada is a dynamic counterpoint to natural textures and materials outdoors.
