Story
Walking on the moon
Jasper Morrison designed Superloon in 2015, when Edge Lighting had just emerged. Struck by its ability to channel light sideways through a flat disc, he imagined a lamp that would mimic the soft, harmonious glow of the full moon.
A disc on a gyroscopic axis
The result is a round disc of light on a gyroscopic axis, free to rotate in any direction. In his words, Superloon answers what to do with this intriguing technology.
