Created in conjunction with Re-Fab: Design for Sail<\/a>, a partnership between Canada Place and Vancouver Architecture For Humanity Society<\/a> to repurpose the fabric from the old Canada Place sails. Exhibited at the IDSWest (Interior Design Show West) in 2011.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We created a series of material experiments\u2014verbs to push sail with. We tried to torch it, burn it, boil it and blend it; to stretch and tear it, twist and braid it, drill and pierce it; mould, glue and engrave it, sandblast, bleach and stain it. We microwaved it. We used liquid nitrogen on it. And it asked for more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Push \/ Pull became a series of lamps that celebrated this beauty in strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
