Collection Story
Origin
Melt is a Tom Dixon lighting family made with the Stockholm studio Front. The sheet's year of design is 2014, while Tom Dixon's product page says the shades were designed in 2015 in the London studio. Front presents the project as “Melt -Tom Dixon crushed by Front” and says it has its origin in a project with Stockholm Konst.
Design Language
Every piece is built on the same distorted orb: a blow-moulded polycarbonate shade finished by vacuum metallisation. The brand says the series is manufactured in Germany by high-tech means. The shade has a mirror finish when off and a hot-blown glass effect when lit, and the finishes include Copper, Gold, Silver, Smoke, Bronze and Nickel.
