Story
Light and shadow
The Discocó Ceiling sends direct light downward and surrounds itself with a dramatic interplay of light and shadow. Indirect light is part of the design and gives the lamp nuance and depth.
Additional reflections dance off the chrome-covered hemisphere at the core, to which the discs are attached. Switched off, the lamp remains an object that catches the eye and fills the space.
