Noctambule
Noctambule: the night owl or reveller.
Mostly invisible during the day, but coming
to glamorous activity at night-time. The analogy
is ftting. The new collection of lamps is made
of blown glass modules, which are see-through
and therefore almost inexistent at day-time.
But, when you switch them on in the dark,
they transform into georgeous, illuminated
lamps. The cylindrical glass modules set the
basic grammar of the collection. The single
module is a lantern. Several modules stacked
on top of each other create a light column, or
suspended chandelier inside a stair well. Extra
elements such a glass dome or cone shaped
head allow for added performance such as
a foorstanding uplighter and pendant.
The carefully calibrated LED technology
which powers the lamps is discretely integrated
into the junctions between the glass modules.
Almost absent, but ready to be activated at any
(night-)time.
