I have recently found some old Floor Lamp frames from the 1990s in storage and have decided to finish them. subobject inc was created to commercialize this lamp when a well know local artist saw it and decided he wanted to give me some money.
The design of the lamp followed from some lighting fixtures (wall sconces) I helped create for an old Calgary night club called Embassy. I was the main designer on the night club and had a hand in most of the layout and many of the fixtures.

I have some better pictures of Embassy but they are on slide and hard to get on here.
Anyway, here are some pictures:

I had all kinds of Quality Control issues with the first 2 (and only) runs of these lamps. First the steel I was sent was of very poor quality with terrible edges.
For the second run I paid a premium to get some good quality steer and had the new frames polished and nickel plated. These frames are quite beautiful, have a stamped serial number and I have somewhere around 9 of them that I have found.
The lens are made from a special polycarbonate meant for aircraft and because this material cannot be laser cut (or flame polished; it burns) and I did not have water jet at that time I had to router the shapes. I tried to manually polish the edges but the micro cracks caused by the router meant that eventually the lens would develop many small cracks. At this point I had run out of money and shelved the project.
subobject went on to become a consulting business for many years, but since I hate business I have had it in legal storage for quite some time.
I have finally found some new polycarbonate that I will have water jet cut and a small run of the second series will be for sale in the future.
