When Studio Y reached out with a vision for Nando’s Knox, we knew it was going to be a showstopper and we weren’t wrong.
At the centre of the space are three custom pendant lampshades, each a striking 2.4m in diameter and 1m high, woven over steel frames right here in our Cape Town workshop. These giants took over our entire showroom during production — a real behind-the-scenes highlight for our team.
The project also features some of our classic designs:
- 6 x Oralu lampshades (300mm x 500mm)
- 2 x Utuli lampshades (475mm diameter x 440mm high)
- 2 x custom Utuli lampshades (380mm diameter x 350mm high)
A massive thank you to the brilliant team at Studio Y for bringing us on board and trusting us to bring this vision to life. We’re always proud to see African craft celebrated in bold and beautiful ways around the world.
