One of the main concerns of Mauricio Klabin was to inspire a feeling of wellbeing and protection or, more precisely, to give us this sensation of being taken in someone's arms.. His work is characterized by the absence of salient angles, complex requirements or complicated instructions of use. His projects are at the same time simple and direct. But, much more than that, he chooses to create objects which contain and cocoon. The Eclipse lamp is a revealing example of his conception of design. Mauricio Klabin also fought to impose the idea that design had to be accessible to everybody.
