In addition, Fabrice Berrux developed distinctive lighting designs for a high-end French furniture company, Roche Bobois. What makes the lighting that Berrux designs stand out is the use of innovative materials such as Dibond, an aluminum composite material. While the materials are contemporary, so are his techniques of pleating the fabric and using bulbs that change the ambiance of the space.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nDix Heures Dix\u00a0lighting\u00a0designs are part\u00a0of\u00a0many projects\u00a0all\u00a0over\u00a0the\u00a0world &#8211; from town halls in a northwestern town in France, to private houses in Paris and Switzerland, and finally professional offices.

In a way the resemblance of origami creates a striking balance between industrial and artisanal design. The combination allows Dix Heures Dix to offer novel, upscale lighting solutions to a wide range of outlets. The main inspiration for the folded lamps can be credited to a combination of plant life, art, and fashion. The final effect allows each lighting centerpiece to tell its own story.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nWe just have one question for you Fabrice, did your inspiration for the folded Dibond lamp come from a certain carnivores plant? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Imagine direct, warm white LED light emanating from an elaborate fixture overhead casting a glow below &#8211; completely transforming the mood of the room.
