Sculptural statements These


luminaires reflect


the many directions pursued by lighting companies, from retro to romantic, and from organic to geometric


AT A CONFERENCE many years ago, the architect Piers Gough had the apparent temerity to suggest that there was absolutely no reason why you couldn’t have chandeliers in an office. It provoked the noisy exit of one offended delegate for whom it was a lateral thought too far. Such was the divide between the functional and the flamboyant that it had appeared unthinkable.


But current luminaire design enjoys a more fluid approach, crossing boundaries and


mixing craft with cutting-edge tech. Te following luminaires are all sculptural, statement pieces – even a couple of limited editions – but reflect the many different directions currently pursued by lighting companies, from retro to romantic, and from organic to geometric.


Chandeliers might so far only have manifested in the communal, soft workspace areas of offices, or the mission control of the odd Silicon Valley giant, but you never know…


Luminora Light Moooi


Designed by Cristina Celestino, Luminora is both simple and complex, a merger of craft (Murano glass) and contemporary techniques, a nod to past grandeur combined with precision optics. Te faceted, transparent, polycarbonate tubes that form the two circular components feature a V-shaped diamond optical pattern. Te LEDs create a 360° optical effect that shifts according to the viewer’s standpoint.


Luminora Light is available in two sizes: medium (45cm) and large (63cm), which allow more permutations for cluster installations. Te medium version has a colour temperature of 2810K and output of 1760lm, while the larger is 2790K and 2790lm. Both have a high colour rendering (CRI 95). Te top and bottom anodised aluminium brackets are champagne in colour. moooi.com
