FOUR-DIMENSIONAL LUXURY AND TECHNOLOGY
1
FOUR AESTHETIC DIMENSIONS. Elegance, excellence, value: there’s no such thing as a single idea of luxury. Luxury is a dimension with many interpretations, all in constant evolution. And if we’re talking about energy, this dimension is Eikon. Every concept of luxury finds its perfect expression in Eikon: technological, chic, sophisticated, essential. Four product lines with different dimensions, finishing and functions, but sharing one common denominator: controlling energy superlatively.
2 3
ULTIMATE TECHNOLOGICAL EXPRESSION. When ultimate aesthetic expression joins forces with avant-garde technical functionalities, the result is absolutely unsurpassable: the four Eikon lines not only embody an apex of contemporary formal elegance, they also personify and express truly advanced technology. Take the performance of the By-me home automation system: intuition and simplicity offering energetic efficiency, maximum control and absolute safety and security. The result? Total comfort, tailor-made for every individual vision of the ideal habitat.
A technological jewel, as pure as a diamond and as light as a feather. Transforming normal everyday gestures into special moments of pleasure.
A celebration of sculptural beauty, exquisite finishing and functional elegance. Transmitting unprecedented charisma and allure to any room.

A new definition of style where detail is supreme. Distinction with discretion.

Aqua
Pearl grey *
A shining choice, with the harmony of diamond white, the purity of diamond black, the delicate shading of aqua and the timeless mystery of pearl grey. * The satinising process for the pearl grey coloured glass, which gives the cover plate a luxury finish, causes the custom symbols - especially those with smaller text sizes - to be less defined when the plate is lit.
LUXURY UNVEILED

IMPERCEPTIBLE IN PROFILE
