Moiré,
movement
with pattern.
A French term derived from silk with a
rippled or “watered” appearance,
moiré is an optical effect that results in
the illusion of waves or the movement of
water. This effect is achieved by having
an opaque, ruled pattern overlaid over
another. Designer Christian Lava’s studies
of this effect have led to his latest design
aptly titled, Moiré. Using overlapping
grids of metal, this LED pendant light
dynamically changes shape following
the viewer’s gaze, practically coming
to life with a vibrating energy. Moiré is
a mesmerizing addition to any room.
Available in gold plated and nickel finish.
Design Christian Lava.
