Nothing could be simpler than lighting by Butter (www.butter-ny.com), a product design company that evolved from a collaboration between Lindsey Adams Adelman ’96 [Industrial Design] and David Weeks. While Adelman was racking up experience at Resolute, a lighting company in Seattle, Weeks was establishing his own Brooklyn-based design firm, David Weeks Lighting. In 1998 the two began trading ideas and the following year Butter’s inaugural product, the glass-fiber Lunette clip-on lampshade, was introduced at London’s 100% Design Show. It has since won awards from I.D. and Blueprint magazines, and is now available at stores ranging from Urban Outfitters to the MoMA gift shop. “Our goal is to design and produce products for the home that are simple and innovative as well as affordable,” Adelman says, “We work closely with manufacturers to develop pieces that make sense to mass-produce without dumbing them down.”
