Product Details
Based on fish traps which are called hīnaki by Māori. Hīnaki traps were made from woven vines, some in amazingly beautiful forms. Hīnaki was David’s first exploration into lighting in 1995 when he made a prototype based on fish traps which are called hīnaki by Maori. Hīnaki traps were made from woven vines, some in amazingly beautiful forms. Hīnaki comes in 3 sizes. The plywood finish can be all natural or painted on one side thus creating a stock selection of 11 options.

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.
