Project

The OMI.mgx Light is one of the first products to be produced and distributed straight from the SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) machine tank. Produced entirely as a single nylon part, its form—together with the natural flexibility of the polyamide—creates the impression of a biological mechanism. The shape can be transformed by bending or twisting the structure: twist one end and the rest will follow. This behaviour offers versatility in that it can be personalized and manipulated easily to create different sculptural sensations and space and moods. The OMI.mgx Light was awarded the Red Dot award for Product Design in 2006.
