Calipso comes to life thanks to the
calculation of an algorithm that starts
from a photo of the moon.
The result is a fractal shape, an impure
geometry that displays the irregular
beauty of nature. Lots of small circles
with varying diameters are arranged
side by side with precision to produce
an organic set.
This grid gives Calipso its aesthetic and
optical character: it is a highly emotional
lighting object and define a comfort
emission.
Calipso is a product perfectly half-way
between home and professional use,
suited for a variety of application fi elds
according to the traditional approach of
Artemide to deliver high performance
lighting, yet with a unique and emotional
expressiveness.
