Hangman
Design by Adam Goodrum
A combination of mischievous nostalgia and avant-garde sculpture, Hangman is the first collaboration between Rakumba and esteemed Australian designer, Adam Goodrum. Inspired by the universally recognised analogue game of ‘Hangman’, this collection of floor, table and pendant luminaires embodies playful design and simple, yet magically executed geometry.
Comprising multiple articulated segments that swivel with an irresistible haptic action, each Hangman light is capable of a surprisingly acrobatic and visually intriguing range of positions. Pairing this directionality with the jewel-like polished glow of a high performance LED optic tip, Hangman delivers unexpected functionality, channelling light to key points within a space while contributing its own iconic personality.
With a nod to the enduring materiality of ageless works by Ray and Charles Eames and Marc Newson, Hangman is available in finishes of anodised black and raw polished aluminium designed to elegantly patina over time.
Hangman: distilled nostalgia from daring geometries.
Hangman is available from January 2022
