Product Details
Coral Pendant is based on one of the geometric polyhedra that have interested David since he was a boy. The intricate form is made from just one single component repeated 60 times. Originally designed purely as an experiment, it only became a light later when David tried to find a use for it by putting a bulb inside.
The plywood finish can be all natural or painted creating a wide range of colour options. Coral was David’s first lighting design which now is considered to be a design classic.
- Self Assembly
- Uses Bamboo Plywood which is a fast growing material and very sustainable
- Shipped as a kitset which on average is 1/30th the volume of an assembled light, reducing effects of shipping and environmental footprint
WHAT WE THINK
David Trubridge lighting, takes from the natural world and it translates through his designs, when we look at David Trubridge's lighting collection, we notice a sophistication and contentment to leave things be, not trying hard to be elaborate or showy. The materials still have all their raw natural character and tactility which helps bring an unassuming calmness and curiosity to the pieces.

David's work came to prominence in 2001 when the Italian design house Cappellini bought the rights for Body Raft. The Coral light followed in 2004 for DTL, establishing a blueprint for kit-set products that minimised environmental footprint. The company is proud to hold Life Cycle Assessments (LCA’s) and Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs).
David's designs have featured in countless international publications including the most influential, as an instigator of the trend of 'raw sophistication' and as an exemplar of environmentally responsible design. In 2008 the French magazine Express listed him as one of the top 15 designers in the world, and in 2012 the Pompidou Centre in Paris purchased his 'Icarus' installation for its permanent collection.
