Gem was created by a coordinated team and by Paul Andreu, one of contemporary architecture's great protagonists. It is the fruit of an innovative relationship between light and space. Gem is a fitting developed for extreme uses, 24 hours a day, with fluorescent or metal halide lamps.
Gem has two polycarbonate shells with photoengraving derived from anti-UV treatments and the moulding process.
The surface of the aluminium reflectors has tiny holes to highlight the volume perceived. Steady performance, long-lasting and energy-saving features combined with elegant shapes and new functional approaches: Gem is an innovative solution imbued with technology in both the formal concept and the functional quality. Gem comes in two versions: either with light directed downwards only or (thanks to a double reflector) with light directed downwards and upwards.
