His lighting designs were preceded by the iconic lamp „Bulb“, which came about in 1966 through a twist of fate and has accompanied Ingo Maurer throughout his life: „The light bulb has always been my guiding principle, from the very beginning.“ Maurer’s designs are diverse and sometimes arise in symbiotic cooperation with other designers, such as in 2012 with Moritz Waldemeyer for the LED lamp with the telling name „My New Flame“.
