Story
A line drawn through the room
In String Light a black electric wire links the lamp to the architecture of the room. Michael Anastassiades designed it in 2014 so that the cable becomes a defining design element and the user shapes the lamp's path around the surroundings.
From power lines to festive lights
The lamp draws quiet, architectural lines through space. Its starting points are overhead power lines and the festive lights strung across Mediterranean squares, and the result is poetic yet precise.
