Bocci 28t Table Light
28 is an exploration of specificity in manufacturing. Instead of designing form itself, the intent was to design a system of making that yields form. Individual lights result from a complex glass blowing technique whereby air pressure is intermittently introduced into and then removed from a glass matrix which is intermittently heated and then rapidly cooled. The result is a distorted spherical shape with a composed collection of imploded inner shapes, one of which acts as a shade for the light source.
28 series pendants can be used with the table light hardware, which includes an integral dimming system housed within a sleek brass cylinder. The black fabric cord is semi-rigid and may be sculpted to add form. The brass stand has a small notch on the underside, allowing it to be hung on a wall if desired.

Omer Arbel
Jerusalem, 1976
Omer Arbel graduated from the University of Waterloo’s School of Architecture in 2000, and, after apprenticeships with several architectural companies, founded Omer Arbel Office, a Vancouver-based design practice, in 2005. The practice produces designs for buildings, objects, furniture, lighting and electrical accessories.
Arbel is also the creative director of the manufacturing and design company, Bocci that produces cast glass lighting features. Cast glass is an organic process, imperfect by nature and each piece is hand made to the client’s specifications. Bocci is now featured in buildings and homes worldwide and has won several high profile international design awards.
Vancouver-based Bocci is a world leader in contemporary lighting design. Founded by Creative Director Omer Arbel in 2005, the "14," where handmade cast glass globes hang from coaxial cables in random arrangements, was their first commercial design and an instant classic. Bocci’s lighting solutions include suspension, floor, wall, ceiling, and table lamps.
Bocci’s designs emerge through experimentation and a deep respect for the materials they work with. The team includes metalworkers, glassblowers, chemists, sculptors, designers, architects, and engineers collaborating to explore and extend lighting form, function, and possibility. Bocci believes that "nurturing the imagination comes from feeding the soul."
