VANTA x Alex Berin – Light & Shadow in Perfect Balance

Some collaborations go beyond design—they are built on trust, shared vision, and creative synergy. Alex Berin is one of my dearest friends, a true artist in geometric patterns and mandalas, and I knew instantly that his work would translate beautifully into VANTA’s world of light and shadow.

Together, we designed a collection that merges precision-cut metalwork with atmospheric lighting, turning his intricate patterns into sculptural pieces that transform spaces.

The Collection: Sculpting Light Through Metal

The VANTA x Alex Berin collection features a series of lighting and panel designs that celebrate form, precision, and movement. Each piece is crafted to create dramatic interplay between light and shadow, shifting and evolving depending on the time of day and the surrounding environment.

• Table & Floor Lamps – Functional sculptures that cast intricate mandala patterns, bringing warmth and depth to any space.

• Privacy Screen & Metal Panel – A versatile piece that functions as a statement wall, fence, or privacy screen, casting mesmerizing shadows while maintaining an open, airy design.

• Pendant Lamp – Designed specifically to hang above the custom pool table I collaborated on with JM1, this piece is a centrepiece of both art and function, bringing refined drama to any setting.

Alex’s work has always been about symmetry, balance, and connection—elements that fit seamlessly with VANTA’s philosophy of precision, permanence, and personality.

Why Alex?

Beyond his undeniable talent, Alex is someone whose artistic vision I deeply respect. His mandalas are not just patterns—they have flow, rhythm, and movement, each design telling a story through repetition and symmetry. I knew his work would be incredible in lighting, where every line would shape the shadows, creating an immersive experience beyond just decor.

This collaboration is a perfect example of what happens when two artists trust each other’s craft—when vision, friendship, and design align.

A Fusion of Art, Function, and Atmosphere

The VANTA x Alex Berin collection is more than just lighting and panels—it’s an exploration of how metal and light interact, how patterns become dimensional, and how an artwork can shift a space entirely.

Designed to be bold yet timeless, each piece elevates interiors and exteriors through movement, shadow, and depth, proving that lighting is more than illumination—it’s art in itself.
