Folded Steel Lamps

The Table Lamp Z Transforms a Single Steel Sheet into Lighting

The Table Lamp Z by Cobre Estudio is a sculptural table lamp formed from a single laser-cut 2-millimetre steel sheet that is folded into a self-supporting Z-shaped structure. Designed by Malena Vivanco and Miranda Gurny, the lamp relies on the folded metal itself for both structural integrity and visual identity, eliminating the need for assembled components or secondary framing. Warm illumination reflects across the internal steel surfaces, accentuating the geometric folds while allowing the appearance of the lamp to shift with changing ambient light throughout the day.

The design emphasises manufacturing clarity by exposing the folded steel construction rather than concealing it behind decorative elements. A coloured fabric power cord introduces a subtle visual contrast to the industrial metal body while remaining the only customisable exterior detail. The Cobre Estudio logo is integrated directly into the steel surface as part of the fabrication process.
