In den Wonderfluoros leuchten ganz normale Neonröhren und verwandeln sie aber in etwas außergewöhnliches. Bei öffentlicher Beleuchtung werden zu 70% Neonröhren verwendet und wurden so ein Hintergrundelement in unserem täglichen Leben. Als Beleuchtung fast jeden Treppenhauses, Bahnhofs oder Parkhauses in Groß Britannien werden diese Lampen sehr oft gesehen, aber sehr selten geschätzt.
Die Wonderfluoros nutzen ein spezielles Spektrenglas, um die weißen Lampen in eine Vielzahl von Farben zu multiplizieren, einen Regenbogeneffekt zu erschaffen, der sich verändert, je nachdem aus welchem Winkel man schaut. Das Design verwandelt diese normalen Standardprodukte, es hebt ihre Grafik und schlichte Schönheit hervor.

The Amazing Crocodile Design Store proudly presents three of the Wonderfluoros by Rachel Harding
Rachel Harding Studio is a spatial and furniture design practice based in London. The studio has a particular interest in reinventing everyday things, bringing delight and invention to ordinary spaces and objects. With an experimental approach to colour and material, the studio works to create minimal designs with a playful narrative.
Rachel works with brands, manufacturers, galleries and clients, initiating new ideas and experiments within commercial settings. She works at a variety of scales, designing everything from concepts and spaces to furniture, objects and details. Spanning the fields of furniture, retail and fashion, each project starts with a radical rethink and in-depth research, collaborating closely with clients and investigating future trends to create solutions that are unexpected and extraordinary. Central to Rachel’s practice is the idea that we can use an understanding of the future to design for the present, creating designs for the near now.
These lamps take ordinary, fluorescent bulbs and change them into something extraordinary. Used in 70% of all public lighting, fluorescent lamps have become a background element in our every-day lives. Lighting almost every stairwell, train station and car park in the UK, these lamps are often seen, but rarely treasured.
The Wonderfluoros use spectrum glass to multiply these white lamps into an array of colours, creating a rainbow effect that changes when viewed from different angles. The design transforms these ordinary off-the-shelf products, emphasising their graphic and simple beauty.
