84 LIGHT + TECH
NUVEM OUTDOOR MODULAR SYSTEM DESIGNED BY MIGUEL ARRUDA FOR SLAMP
Slamp’s system certainly pushes the boundaries way beyond the average bollard or bulkhead when it comes to the creative possibilities of outdoor lighting. Its applications range from wall decoration – ‘a sort of technological ivy, even on building façades’ – to a shading element or even waterproof lighting structure.
(96cm x 103.5cm x 6cm). The hexagonal elements are connected through a simple system that allows free expansion in every direction, with the connection secured manually using a ‘clipper’ tool. Clips can be removed to modify connections between modules,
As with the Italian company’s interior version (launched in 2019), the Nuvem Outdoor Modular System can be customised to create one-of-a-kind concepts. The individual luminous V0 polycarbonate modules each measure 1m2
allowing the installation to evolve over time without a lot of technical faff. The lighting system consists of integrated 4.2W LED (500lm, 3000K) IP65 bidirectional light units. These can be added according to the project needs at different points of the composition or individual modules. Up to six light units can be connected to a single electrical point, using a junction light case that allows wires to converge in one location. Specialised cable clamps can be used to manage the wiring and keep it discreet. The ceiling anchoring system allows the suspension cables to be adjusted, which means each module can sit at different heights for more flexibility. Similarly, the wall anchoring system enables designers to fix the modules at different distances from the wall, playing with the depth and movement of the composition.

UTOPIA DAVIDE GROPPI
Groppi continues his mission to achieve the ultimate minimalism with the Utopia wall system. With an LED strip of just 3mm thick, it runs from wall to wall, and can be bent in space using a dedicated accessory. The stainless steel profile, available in 6m and 12m lengths, can be installed in spaces with low ceilings, with a recommended installation height of more than 2.3m from the floor. It is also available with double light emission in its linear version. Finished in black, it comes in two colour temperatures: 2700K (6079lm) and 3000K, (6322lm), both CRI 90.
‘Utopia is a project on the limit state of light, the research for the minimum dimension necessary for pure and essential lighting,’ says the Groppi webite.
