RAIMOND LIGHT
A spherical design comprised of delicate stainless steel bands and studded with tiny LED lights. In the oor version, Raimond’s sparkling globe rests gingerly on a stand made from slender oak sticks, appearing to hover just above it, rather than resting on it.
Heracleum

By using the technique of coating conductive layers, the lamp is very thin and delicate. A design not possible with normal wires. The Heracleum leaves are not frozen in one position. They can be freely re-positioned by rotating them around their stem.
Heracleum creates an amazing atmospheric ambiance wherever it is placed, with sparkling illumination using warm white LEDs. Dimmable. Available in 3 distinct shapes: original pendant, Big O and Endless (linear).

Parison Pendant Light The Parison Pendant is a mouth-blown glass pendant that mixes black and clear glass to create an ombre effect within the fixture. Designed by Nat Cheshire, the top of the pendant is an opaque black that moves in a fluid gradient to ultimately become transparent. The neck of the pendant holds an LED lamp that diffuses soft, warm light. Nearly two feet in diameter, the Parison is a sculptural fixture that looks like a work of glass art, even when it is not illuminated. The pendant can be used in a dining room to create romantic overhead lighting, or can be used for atmospheric lighting in a den, living room, or bedroom space.
The Hex, Tri and Cross pendant light have a modern aesthetic and features two opposing aluminium channels that intersect to propel a warm LED light through a recessed poly prismatic d i f f u s e r. T h e h a n d m a d e pendant is suitable for a range of interiors.
The Mesh Space pendant is constructed around a seamless floating halo of LED light. It hangs horizontally with a very thin profile and creates a warm, functional light effect on surfaces below. A flattened mesh dome is a reflector and a filter to the upward moving light. The LED light ring is powered through the thin suspension wires to achieve a real lightness and transparency to this piece.
A series of LED pendant lights and wall sconces wrapped with industrial grade felt made from 100% natural wool. The Starting point of the SLAB light was to create a light ďŹ xture that would reduce the acoustic ambient sound in the environment that it is hung in. Designed to have a large sound absorbing face and contrasted by its minimal 15mm thick edge. The ďŹ xture has a noticeable but not overwhelming presence.
BUTTON 60 is a wide surface LED pendant light. The ďŹ xture allows the user to articulate the illuminated face towards the desired direction.
