Pendulum

During the day, Pendulum creates a playful pathway of alternating shadows on the street. The flat and horizontal design of the light fixtures increases the surface area of the solar panels as much as possible, optimizing solar energy harvesting. At night, PENDULUM becomes an avenue of interactive street lights.

Mono

Mono is an elegant ceiling lamp composed of an LED orb that illuminates and balances a partly satin-finished glass halo. The on-off function and brightness of the light can be regulated by pinching a wand that extends from the light structure. The light is endowed with a memory for the brightness from the previous session, making it considerate and familiar to its users.

Cosmos

Cosmos is a stackable chandelier lighting fixture with a traditionally industrial function and aesthetic. Hand-cut glass bulbs made by Czech glassblowers emit a warm glow that contrasts the steel structure that transmits the electricity for the light.

Floating Lights

Floating Lights is a modular lighting sculpture that uses balance and weightlessness to construct a composition that is adjustable for any setting. Luminous LEDs are woven into a slender stainless steel structure, creating a pattern that transforms as you move around it. Like a willow tree in the breeze, the light curtain is mesmerizing in its simultaneous presence and ephemerality.

Sunseeker

Eindhoven, The Netherlands, is the primary place in Europe where the professional fields of design and technology merge. VANTOT created a concept and design for a sustainable and interactive (street) light-installation called Sunseeker, designed for the brand new Victoriapark in Eindhoven

O-O-O

Continuous Current uses the same grid as the V-V-V, it also proposes a low voltage source of light that provides subtle illumination in space. It is a lightweight system which easily gets integrated into a space matching the environment and situations by regulating the light intensity.

V-V-V

VANTOT takes a different approach by designing innovative, low voltage lighting objects that step away from the traditional concept of a lamp and a power cord. Instead, Current Curtain shows LED modules that are fully conductive while safe to touch. Current Curtain is a modular system and gives you endless possibilities in quantity of light and composition. Due to the use of the modular rail system, it is also possible to add modules and wires to your collection in a later stage.

Limpid Lights

In addition to VANTOT's collection Exploded View, Limpid Lights continues on the idea of manipulating the light with movement. By moving the light source closer to, or further away from the lighting object, the intensity of the light can be adapted. While the initial LED-light is fresh and bright, the handblown glass shades can be used to soften the light and create a more intimate ambience. By moving the light source, the light can be playfully adapted from bright to a more diffuse, soft and/or coloured light.

Feather

Current Currents challenges the idea of traditional lighting and rediscovers the role of light in our interior. Feather translates this principle by adding LED’s to an electrically loaded base which gives you freedom in the amount of light and composition of LED’s.

Feather CHANDELIER

LED requires a different approach than conventional lighting. Compared to traditional fixtures, the focused and dense light of LED calls for multiple light sources instead of one. The feather family consists of free-formed structures with various interchangeable handblown “LED bulbs”. The Chandelier consists of 28 light sources.

Thank you for the sun

The petrol station, an icon of a fossil era in a post-fossil society. What kind of new function could the archetypical petrol station get in the future? During Dutch Design Week (DDW) 2018, designers Esther Jongsma & Sam van Gurp (VANTOT), Sander Wassink and Job van den Berg challenged and answered this question by means of their installation Thank You for the Sun, which was on show at the Markt in the city centre of Eindhoven from 20-28 of October.

Exploded View

Do we understand what happens when we dim our lights? How can we include dimming as a part of the design? By means of a reflecting lampshade, the light is reflected. Depending on the position of the light bulb to the cover, the light is reflected at the top or bottom.
