Moooi Raimond II Tensegrity Floor Lamp
The Raimond Tensegrity is a floor lamp made from elegant metal, complemented with the sturdy earthiness of wood.
Tensegrity is a term that was first described by Buckminster Fuller as an architectural term. It refers to the interconnected wooden structure that uses tension and pressure to keep its shape. The beauty of the Raimond Tensegrity lies not only in its contrasting materials, but also in the trigonometric harmony of both structures. Mathematical perfection times two.

Raimond Puts
Netherlands, 1937 - 2012
From a very early age, Raimond Puts began playing around with his Meccano toy box, which sparked his interest in engineering and machinery. He pursued his dreams in this field and was trained in the craft of metalwork, and owing to this, a new world opened up for him.
About thirty years ago he began building models from cheap materials like strip–iron, mosquito nets & paper. He became attracted to the challenges of making geometric shapes & models. Over the years he has experimented with all sorts of shapes & materials. He searches for solutions to the practical problems he encounters with an angel-like patience & determination. Over the years his constructions have become more refined and by making use of the LED-technique, Raimond has found an extremely productive combination. In his work he searched for the ideal integration of beauty & functionality. In his designs he always searched for the essence & creates from minimal means, maximum results.
He was not only interested in the exterior results. His objects stand as models for a world in which everything is connected to everything else. Everything fits perfectly. This conceptual simplicity inspired him to continue searching for newer constructions. In them, he found peace & continous surprises.
In 2010 Raimond Puts won the best Woonproduct of 2010 Award (Sanoma Woon Awards) with the Raimond light.
