Slicing breaks down the iconic Gople silhouette and scale into different dimensions and
proportions to bring light indoor and outdoor, by interpreting the relationship between spaces
and nature.
Starting from the principles of production, energy sustainability and respect for the natural
environment in which they are inserted, a series of overlapping slats interact with the light and
define the body of three suspension lights two floor and one wall/ceiling elements.
The dimensions of the different versions are defined not only by aesthetic proportions but also by
being care to avoid wasting the production material.
Each slat is shaped after the laser cutting of the aluminium sheet. The different diameters of
Slicing, inserted one into the other, reconstruct a complete surface that avoids wasting material
thanks to its intelligent nesting.
The optics are designed to maximise efficiency. The light emitted by the LED placed at one end is
perfectly controlled by a lens that distributes it with a slightly degrading effect on the sequence of
slats. These reflect it inside the body according to a precise optical calculation and then distribute
it into the environment, thus softly illuminating the space.
The emission is perfectly calibrated in the different versions to offer a light that is able to follow
human activities and needs while respecting the natural environment in which it is inserted.
Slicing can accompany us as we walk about, it helps us to read the surrounding landscape in the
movement, it stages the space and creates moments of rest, sharing and meeting, resulting in an
experience on a human scale.
The suspension lights are also available in indoor versions with cable instead of rigid rods,
completing a family of elements capable of designing scenarios that interact with the surrounding
environment and with those who live there.
