Story
Pot's third fibreglass design
The NR2 family is the third instalment of Bertjan Pot's experiments with fibreglass, after the Random Light and the Non Random light. The raucous nature of the Random family and the cuteness of the Non Random light gave way to a subdued calmness in NR2. The first NR2 Medium was introduced in 2015, and the NR2 Large followed six years later.
The calm focal point
The NR2 has an oval shape and an integrated LED light, and its lattice forms a fine web that shines and glimmers in the light. It comes in black or white.
