Jeahna

“We saw a picture of a tent lit up at night and realised that a tent structure must be the optimum textile solution for an outdoor lamp. And that’s how Jeahna was born,” says Alexander.

He and Carpner collaborated with Hilleberg the Tentmaker on construction. Jeahna can withstand sun, wind, wet and cold conditions, and is ideal for gardens and courtyards. Together with Zero they have developed various light fittings for Jeahna – offering everything from general white light to controlled RGB effects.

Jeahna is a designer lamp by the Swedish designer Alexander Lervik, dated 2012. The work is produced by Zero, which manufactures and distributes it, while the design originates in Lervik’s studio. In the portfolio it is listed under collaborations, innovation, lighting.

Alexander Lervik is a Swedish designer whose work spans furniture, lighting, product design and collectible design. His practice combines function, storytelling, technology and conceptual experimentation, moving between industrial production, limited-edition objects and design art. He trained at Beckmans College of Design in Stockholm and runs his studio in Österlen in the south of Sweden.

The project belongs to a body of work that is represented in museum collections including Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Nasjonalmuseet in Oslo and the Röhsska Museum in Gothenburg, and that has been covered by international design and news media. Related works can be found through the furniture, lighting and collectible design pages and in the complete portfolio.
