Vertigo Bird is a design branch of the Slovene lighting company Sijaj Hrastnik, both managed by Silvo Kačar, who is also a founder of the international lightning company Arcadia Lightwear, and a member of the design group called Smoke Detektors.
Background
In search for the appropriate name for the new brand, the inspiration was found in the contemporary dance video Vertigo Bird by Sašo Podgoršek and En-Knap Productions. A dance performance which takes place in a coalmine ends with a meaningful scene – a dancer Iztok Kovač climbs high up the shaft and at the end walks on the edge of the high chimney just like a Vertigo Bird. The name was born, presenting the brand's birthplace and mission – the desire to reach the global market.
Awards
In 2008 the light Luc by Arne Vehovar was nominated for BIO - Biennial of Industrial Design. In 2009 the light Slim designed by Bevk Perović Arhitekti won the prestigious Red Dot Award: Product Design. In 2009 Silvo Kačar and the brand Vertigo Bird received the TREND Award for the design achievements.
