The Nákar lamp is a spectacular pendant halfway between the unmistakable Chinese lantern, the iconic Disa lamp that Coderch imagined in the 50s and the equally iconic Totem by LZF and Forestier.
Nákar, hand-braided with natural materials, pays tribute to totems, objects that tell the stories of a place. In addition, its natural fall is intended to evoke the clusters of dates from the Canary Island palm tree that are so abundant in the surroundings of the hotel.
As the main axis and light source, opal white methacrylate tubes of 2.3 and 3.3 meters in length were used, inside which a double LED strip is housed. For the tulips, some of 1m. in diameter, frames were made and woven by hand with a flat ribbon of natural rattan pith that was later hand-painted in white, ocher and green. Due to the fragility of rattan, they were resolved completely removable, but at the same time easy to assemble in their location.
To suspend the 16 lamps, steel cables and tensioners were used to regulate the height to 4m. ground. The height of the ceilings (15m.) and the difficulty of accessing them in case of maintenance, implied their electrification above the roof.
