Press is a series of luminaires made from thick pressed glass with beautiful surface effects. The shape is reminiscent of sailing buoys and children's toys. The ribbed glass creates an irregular diffusion of light and projects linear and striped patterns.
Press is made by dropping massive globes of molten glass at 1,200 degrees centigrade, pressed into iron moulds under tons of pressure to create immensely durable lights.

Tom Dixon
Tom Dixon is a designer who is always looking to reinvent himself. He works primarily in the areas of lighting, accessories and furniture. Since his debut in the 1980s, he has constantly reinvented himself through a series of innovative designs. He has worked with luxury Italian brands with Cappellini, creative director at Habitat and Artek. He then created his own eponymous brand in 2002 to rethink the designer's relationship with industrial design.
The most recent chapter in Tom Dixon's design story began in 2002, when he left professional life to create his own eponymous brand as a platform for a series of new adventures in product and interior design.
Fifteen years later, Tom Dixon has become a globally recognised player in the interior design industry, with his own shops in New York, Hong Kong, London, Los Angeles and Tokyo.
