Come Endless, la collezione Mini di Jason Miller è stata originariamente concepita come un elemento architettonico. Tuttavia, la scala e la costruzione di Mini sono ispirate agli alberi delle navi in legno. Prima dei materiali avanzati e della produzione industriale, i velieri in legno erano le meraviglie ingegneristiche del loro tempo. Per necessità, la costruzione era tanto ingegnosa quanto bella.
The joinery on this thing is what sold me—you can see the shipwright influence in every angle, and it casts a surprisingly warm glow for something so compact. Took a while to find the right spot for it, but now it's the first thing I notice when I walk into the room.
The way the Mini's scale echoes a ship's mast is what sold me—it reads as a bold architectural piece even in a small hallway. The craftsmanship is clean and the light it casts feels surprisingly warm for such a compact fixture.
The mast-inspired proportions are clever in theory, but in practice the fixture feels a bit delicate for the architectural statement it's going for. The wood construction is nice enough, though I wish the light output were a touch warmer for a room that needs more ambiance.
