schprokets
source: designboom
the structure and gear shape of the ‘schproket’ is the result of engineering a mechanism which acts as a low voltage,
safe socket to produce crisp rings of incandescent light points. designed by american artist christopher moulder,
the fixture can be hung from the ceiling, horizontally or angled, singly or in stacks in 24 inch, 36 inch and 47 inch rings.
lit with high efficiency xenon long life bulbs, the piece can also be mounted directly onto the wall or ceiling. ‘I wanted to create a piece with no wires or sockets, so I started experimenting with low voltage bulbs,’ moulder says.
‘low voltage means the fixture doesn’t have to be insulated. instead, the ‘schproket’ is the socket.’

Christopher Moulder is a composer of light. His works possess a flow and visual rhythm that leave indelible signatures on the spaces they inhabit. His chandeliers, pendants, and ceiling and wall mounted fixtures span a broad range of styles: from sea and sky inspired rhapsodies that swim and soar, to architectural, sculptural designs that assert their quiet presence with elegantly refined gestures.
Fabricated using only the finest, texturally sophisticated materials, and meticulously engineered to the highest standards, these works of lighting art transform commercial and residential spaces.
Christopher’s studio is based in Atlanta, Georgia but his work travels the world. He creates and builds both one-of-a-kind sculptural lighting artworks designed for specific sites, and an original line of lighting fixtures made to order.
