MIO was founded by the Salm brothers to create the most sustainable and innovative design experiences on the market. They strive for success by focusing their designs on the needs of people today and aim towards “the technologically advanced responsible product experiences of the futureâ€. MIO offers wallpaper, lighting, seating, and more, but it’s their lighting collection that really caught by eye.
Above are the Trask Lamp and the Shroom Light. The top image, the Trask Lamp, is a true example of eco-centric design. Its size, shape, and light source were all chosen based on material and manufacturing efficiencies. And, well, it looks pretty cool too. The second image is the Shroom Light. The Shroom was designed as mood lighting and are is ideally used in clusters. Its felt is used to diffuse and soften light, creating relaxing atmospheres.
