limited moths designed by mischer'traxler
the limited moths lamp is part of the realLimited series.
realLimited points out Limitations in Reality.
Inspired by the current hype of limited editions, the project RealLimited connects limitation back to realistic facts.
Endangered species are translated into limited editions of products. Each single product, or element of a product, represents one individual. The money generated by selling the limited editions goes to environmental projects. RealLimited should show that Design can be functional, good and beautiful, not just in an object, but also for the idea it stands for.
