Fab 25 Table Lamp, designed by ISM Objects, has received a prestigious Good Design Award for Product Design, recognising its outstanding design and innovation.
“We work hard to design and manufacture innovative and sustainable contemporary lighting and it is an honour to receive this award alongside the high calibre of our industry peers,” said ISM Objects founders Simon Christopher and Celina Clarke.
Fab 25 Lamp is the evolution of ISM Objects’ original Fab Lamp designed in 1991, which won an Artist and Industry award for design and production. The original Fab Lamp embodied many of the concepts that Simon and Celina set out to explore when they established ISM Object. There have been many advances in manufacturing and lighting technology since the Fab Lamp, so Simon and Celina designed a new product that referenced the original but incorporated innovative new features.
“We set ourselves a challenge to redesign an item that was very special to us and a major step in the evolution of our design careers,” says Simon. “For both the Fab and Fab 25 lamps to receive industry awards is affirmation of our commitment to designing and manufacturing products based on progressive and sustainable thinking.”
Good Design Australia hosted the annual awards ceremony at the Sydney Opera House on 17 May, celebrating the best of Australian design. This year marked the 60th anniversary of the awards and it attracted a record number of entries. Danish architect Jan Utzon congratulated all the 2018 winners.
