Experience light in a new way with this alluring product

SFIR by BUDDE is a table luminaire skillfully designed to generate a creative interplay between human and object.

Thanks to a convenient (de)assembling system that requires no tools – ‘SFIR’ is an expressive human-centered design crafted by Cologne-based label BUDDE that invites the user to playfully interact and switch between different light ambiances, depending on utility and desire.

A massive glass sphere, which is the expressive heart of SFIR – brilliantly acts as a sophisticated spherical joint mechanism to enable a 3D motion of the lampshade while it additionally captures the light beams coming out of this object’s foot.
