'InnerTube' from Sylvain Willenz received a Henry van de Velde Label 06.

InnerTube explores the relationship between the material and its application. The soft and flexible back rubber lampshade derives its shape from the actual light source around which it is stretched, where it stays in place thanks to the heat of the tube. This creates an unusual void, which diffuses nevertheless a white light full of contrast.
