Moodu, Silva: which lamp to choose?
Three lamps, three different ways to experience Fabric & Clips. Before choosing, it's best to know exactly what distinguishes them — not just on paper, but in real-world use.
Moodu: for those who want to invent everything
No model is imposed. You start with a box of clips and beech rods, and you build a shape that exists nowhere else. Allow about 30 minutes for a stable first version, and much more if you take the time to explore different silhouettes.
For you if: you enjoy hands-on projects, you're not afraid to start over multiple times, and the idea of a totally unique result motivates you more than it holds you back.
Silva: for those who want a beautiful result, quickly
Silva starts from the opposite principle: the design is already conceived. The profiled rods and custom clips assemble in minutes, with no creative thinking required. Also available in brass, aluminum, and acrylic to vary styles.
For you if: you like handmade objects, but without wanting to spend an entire afternoon on them — or if you're giving the lamp to someone who prefers guided assembly.

In summary
There isn't a "better" lamp between Moodu and Silva, only the one that matches how you want to experience the object: by inventing it, by assembling it quickly, or by adopting it as is.
