Discovery Dialogue

Overview

Discovery Dialogue explores, within Ernesto Gismondi's Discovery, new possibilities for a dynamic dialogue between light, space and perception, as Carlotta de Bevilacqua's contribution. A diagonal cut splits its surface in half and divides it into two different light emissions, each calibrated in its light characteristics. The emissions from the frame's profile separate and vary independently.

Build

It is a Design Collection luminaire for suspension, IP20, dimmable, offered in black, bronze and silver.

Overall size

The frame measures 970 mm by 970 mm and is 17 mm wide; hanging height from the ceiling reaches 2470 mm at most.

Electrical data

Code 2032030APP: 36 W, 1117 lm, efficiency 47%, efficacy 31.03 lm/W, CRI 60.

A cut as dialogue

A diagonal cut, reminiscent of Fontana's canvases, disrupts the surface of Discovery by splitting it in half. It interrupts the sequence of micro-incisions that extract light and creates a new balance between two types of light, whether similar or contrasting. The space that opens between the two parts sparks a dialogue between light, space and perception.
