Reclaimed fire extinguishers are cut to varying lengths, and wet painted to create these striking pendant lights. The variation of proportions and colour produce a tremendous range of designs without complicating production. Green and beautiful.

“Benefit of the Doubt” Installation
Design: Barr Gilmore
Client: Nuit Blanche
Date: 2008
Photo: Gbalogh
Pulled from the iconic signage of Honest Ed’s on Bloor, this light sculpture will act as an object of both contemplation and spectacle. It will speak to everyone’s behavioral aspirations, but will also pay homage to the benevolent and honest Ed Mirvish, who died last year at the age of 92. Shown are the concept drawing, and the actual work lit up on the evening of Nuit Blanche.

QIM Street Lights
Design: Michel Dallaire Design Industriel Inc.
Client: Quartier international de Montréal
Date: 2004
This distinctive tandem lighting solution is part of a family of public furniture designed for Quartier international de Montréal. According to Dallaire, the aesthetic vocabulary of the collection was “inspired by the contrast of the circle with the absolute vertical rectitude”. In that sense, these street lights are arguably the centerpiece of the collection.
Materially, the designs are unified through the use of aluminum – extruded, sand-cast, die-cast and machined. Here, aluminum extrusions house a central post, to which standard signage, traffic lights and other elements are fixed. The seams between the extrusions nicely accommodate these protruding fixtures.
