Story
Rotomoulded bell
Joan Gaspar used rotomoulding to give the fixture vastly different interiors and exteriors. Outside, the texture recalls stone and gives a perception of great weight, emphasised by its volume. Inside, a spacious smooth white space reflects the light.
The Djembé collection is designed for repetition, creating musical compositions of light on the ceiling, and the fixtures can be used individually or combined.
