Joachim (Achim) Manz is a German artist and designer who applies his expertise in fine concrete to create distinctive lighting objects. With roots in sculpture and architecture, he explores daydream-inspired shapes, culminating in pieces that blend poetic simplicity with modern technology. Manz’s iconic “Trabant” lamp, produced by TECNOLUMEN, showcases his fascination with form, material, and subtle lighting effects. He experiments across large-scale installations and smaller prototypes, always balancing functionality and artful expression. The result is sculptural illumination marked by clarity and timeless appeal.
