DESIGN BOOM - MARCH 2026
designboom's ultimate guide to milan design week 2026
Andrea Claire Studio presents Totemic, a monumental sculptural lighting installation at Alcova during Milan Design Week 2026. The installation explores the ritual of adornment, where jewelry acts as a memento and container of meaning. Treating lighting as jewelry for space, Totemic stacks luminous forms into a vertical architectural composition. Three shade forms—Moon, August and Sage—are arranged as vertical elements supported by slender brass armatures finished in gold and silver leaf. The presentation marks the Los Angeles–based practice’s first international solo exhibition and its debut at Alcova.
