cloud softlight
designed by: molodesign
is lit internally by energy-efficient LED and radiates a gentle, all around, ambient quality of
light. The beautiful, low glare light emanating from cloud makes it ideal for reading, doing
detailed work, or simply bringing a new impression to a space. Beneath the textile shade,
the visually delicate, demountable wooden bases of cloud floor + table softlight make
clever use of a flexible and hidden connection to elegantly join each of it’s three legs
together. avilable at:

spectro led
designed by: Jack Mitchell
Spectro Pendant originally designed by Jack Mitchell in 1986.

mid-century vibe, but now it comes with state-of–the-art LED lamping.  This new energy
efficient version of a Boyd favorite emits 4000 lumens at only 59 watts, and is a smart
solution in any setting.  The Spectro LED which emits both a soft up-light and a soft .
down-light is available in four finishes and comes with an option for LED dimming.

gregg
designed by: Ludovica+Roberto Palomba
An organic, elegant and familiar shape that does not use pure geometry as its point of reference
and is therefore truer and closer to the exemplarity that we find in nature. Gregg is a concentration
of purity, eccentricity and freedom with the trademark design of Ludovica + Roberto Palomba.
Gregg is a decorative object with a special, innovative formality. The eclectic personality of its
volume offers a different image depending on where you view it from.
Gregg is a hanging lamp, ceiling light, wall light and table lamp. It has a white, satinised
diffuser that totally embraces the light source and gives excellent light diffusion.

spiry
designed by: Giovanni Barbato
Ironic and playful: a spiral of light, almost like a spinning top released into the air.
Spiry is a hanging lamp strongly characterised by its diffuser: created in white painted
aluminium, the diffuser is light and slender, like a soft tissue that is wrapped around the light
and that seems to want to continue spinning with spiral movements to accentuate the
light as it escapes downwards. Spiry’s form is simple and elegant in its visual effect, yet
extremely complex to create. It is suitable to light a variety of spaces in the home and,
at the same time, knows how to be a discrete protagonist of its surrounding environment.
A hint of irony? The fiery red cable that supports the light, making it nicely young
and modern. available at:

valeo
designed by: Cernogroup
Valeo, which, when fully extended, stands eight feet tall and has a nine foot reach. Cofounder
and Director of Design Nick Sheridan touches on the challenges of creating bold new forms: “It’s
always tough to know how far to push a design. We strive to keep it functional, but also to
ensure significant visual impact,” explained Sheridan. “The Valeo accomplishes both without
compromise.” available at:

havana outdoor suspension
designed by: Jozeph Forakis, 2005
Havana Outdoor Suspension is a suspended lamp with a natural shape, warm diffuse and a
gentle light that blends perfectly into any outdoor environment. The diffuser is a single rotational
molded piece constructed out of high-quality polyethylene. Thus, it provides for a diffuse as
well as atmospheric light distribution. The mounting of the Foscarini Havana Outdoor Suspension
is made of lacquered metal and the cable may be shortened up to one’s needs. The Museum
of Modern Art, New York, selected the Havana for its permanent design exhibition. Havana
Outdoor Suspension is available in white and yellow. available at:
