Story
A study in geometry
Suspended discs are the subject of the Flat pendant: a study of pure form in light, projecting indirect light with an enveloping subtlety. Its plain design reads as a sculptural object floating in the air.
Composing Pendants
In Composing Pendants a Flat luminaire can hang alone, or several pendants can be hung at will from one point of connection. The floating surfaces create overlapping planes that interact with the environment and bring depth and visual texture.
