Markus Johansson

Markus Johansson design studio (Sweden) are working in segments of products, furniture, graphic and interior design. The inspiration comes from various environments stretching from the human to the artefact, through analysing and processes. The vision is to combine construction, function and form to enrich the everyday experience. Environmental thinking is of course important, but shouldn’t hinder creativity.

“For me, design is about conveying an emotion that affects human Life and enhance everyday life. Since I was a little kid, I always felt a great energy and desire to create. When I grew up I used to commu- nicate using pictures and by drawing, shaping and coloring. After six years of studying furniture and product design at various schools, I am now working as a designer in different segments as products, interior, graphic and furniture.”

The Blockchain System is a sculptural lighting piece composed of extruded aluminum cubes, seemingly arranged in random order. Yet, within this apparent chaos lies precise engineering – each millimeter calculated to create a striking silhouette. A single cube, as if traveling through time and space, forms a sequence of positions for the beholder. Every second cube is illuminated with a custom-made LED panel, designed to cast a uniform light onto the surface below. The cubes, appearing to float in midair, create a dynamic interplay of light and shadow.

Blockchain System comes in various lengths, starting from 1200mm up to 3000mm in a continuous line, expanding in set configurations from 11 to 17, 23, and finally 29 cubes.

Engineered and handcrafted in Sweden, locally in the Greater Gothenburg area on the Swedish west coast.

Cirrata

Environment

Unexpected experiences and surprises wait deep down on the ocean floor: a body with many arms lights up the depth. Arrogant and presumptuous, there is no doubt about who is the ruler down here. A lonely but nevertheless unafraid character with forms born out of the resemblance to other inhabitants of the unknown.

The character is Cirrata, a glowing lamp in the darkness of the ocean. Markus Johansson has created a lamp that challenges all ideas about what is possible to make out of aluminium. The symmetrical arms equally carry the weight of the lamp.
