# Knitted Lighting Series The Knit Series by ByBORRE & HollisMorris Wraps Around Metal Lights By Amy Duong | Published 2025-12-23 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knit-series References: [hollisandmorris](https://hollisandmorris.com/collections/knit-series)  The Knit Series is a lighting collection by [ByBORRE](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/textile-production) and HollisMorris. The duo works together to translate the logic of knit construction into rigid [metal light fixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-aluminum-lighting). Rather than using fabric, the series applies knit principles such as repetition, structure, and pattern to [perforated metal surfaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seam-collection) that shape and diffuse light. The fixtures use precisely engineered metal shells to create softness through geometry, allowing light to pass through layered openings that reference knitted forms without using flexible materials. The lighting pieces are designed as architectural objects intended for interior spaces, balancing visual weight with controlled illumination. Perforation density influences light diffusion and shadow, producing subtle gradients across surrounding surfaces. HollisMorris provides the lighting framework and fabrication, while ByBORRE contributes its structural design methodology.
