Luce Orizzontale
Luce Orizzontale by Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec is a sculptural lamp combining exquisite craftsmanship and cutting-edge manufacturing technology. Originating from an ambitious Flos Bespoke project, the design of Luce Orizzontale distils the concept’s artisanal complexity: an interlocking, modular structure composed of tubular elements of thick glass, minimally suspended from the ceiling.
GLASS MARVEL
The glass cylinders are supported by a polished aluminium bar, while the light sources, two LED strips pushing the light upwards and downwards, are inserted in the bar, and can be dimmed through a system located at one end of the bar.
‘It is not a technical glass', explain Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, ‘but an ever-changing material, almost alive, with aluminium extrusions inserted through it. The result we wanted to achieve was precise, but also fluctuating and vibrant.’
Three light control options
With Luce Orizzontale, you can turn the light on and off, adjust the intensity and control the upper and lower lights separately. This can all be done using the Direct touch control, located on the side of the luminaire, the Push DIM control system or the DALI control system.
Sustainability
The lamp can be totally disassembled without tools. Every single component is designed to be easily replaceable if needed. No screws or glues have been used which makes it easy to disassemble. All components can be recycled.
It’s a poetic yet technical sculpture, a functional lighting object that conveys the Bouroullec’s ability to simplify through design, embracing technical complexity and transforming craft into its most modern expression.
A handmade product in three different sizes
The lamp’s modular configuration includes 8, 10 or 12 cast glass tubes (the size ranges from 4.9 feet to 8.2 feet) and hanging structures of different lengths.
