Description
Overview
Funivia is a lighting system built on a cable, with luminaire elements that hook onto it. This row is the Diffused Linear Module, 600 mm, 2700K, Black, Push on Board (FW00004).
How the system works
The cable brings power to the luminaires and carries their weight. Mechanical elements fix it to a wall, the floor or the ceiling, and it can run horizontal, vertical or freely inclined. A bridge element, a current-stealing lock, clips each luminaire on and draws energy from the cable. This module is dimmed with a push button on the adapter.
Specifications
13 W, 1183 lm, CRI 90, efficiency 57% (91 lm/W), IP20; 600 x 27 mm (W x D).
Story
A network instead of fixed modules
Funivia is conceived as a network of elements that evolves as elements are added, starting from a rope and fastening points. It moves away from the rigid fixed modules of existing systems, in space, stock and production. It is not tied to a power grid or a predefined design, and it can enter any space at any time. Carlotta de Bevilacqua designed it.
