The Unity Globe light consists of 1080 identical modular buildingblocks that can be arranged in a multitude of geometric shapes and structures that when they are assembled in certain ways they start describing the shape of a 3 dimensional sphere.
Representing the way certain things in nature seemingly magically grow shape or form themselves in re-occuring shapes that we see all around us on every level when we zoom in or out. The unity globe light is the result of a study of the simple mathematical set of rules underlaying to these fenomenon leading him to the principle that makes it possible for him to develop this kind of mathematical constructions out of various materials.
