Minimalist Geometric Lighting

The Ipnos Outdoor Light by FLOS is Sculpturally Contemporary

— July 15, 2014 — Art & Design
Outdoor lamps have never looked more chic thanks to Ipnos, a minimalist geometric lighting. It is a stunning example of moving away from traditional forms to create products that could function virtually as anything. Whether mistaken for a work of sculptural art or as another type of furniture, the light fixture is a great conversation piece to have around the house.

Designed by Guido Bianchi and Nicoletta Rossi, a creative duo based in Milan Italy, for FLOS, the minimalist geometric lighting is made for both indoor and outdoor use. Made out of thin, anodized aluminum poles, the upper parts encase LED lights. Shedding a mysterious glow since the light source is so deceptive, minimalist geometric lighting is available in three finishes: anodized natural, black or copper. In all, it is a classy lamp.
Trend Themes
1. Minimalist Geometric Lighting - Indicates a trend towards simple and modern lighting design with interesting and unique shapes and forms.
2. Indoor-outdoor Lighting - Demonstrates a trend towards lighting products that are versatile enough for both indoor and outdoor use.
3. Anodized Aluminum Materials - Shows a trend towards the use of durable and lightweight materials, particularly anodized aluminum, in the manufacturing of lighting products.
Industry Implications
1. Lighting Fixtures - The lighting industry can explore new technologies, materials and designs to create more innovative and versatile lighting products.
2. Furniture - The furniture industry can incorporate lighting in unique and interesting ways to create multifunctional products that serve both as decor and as functional lighting.
3. Art and Sculpture - The art and sculpture industry can collaborate with the lighting industry to create functional art pieces that blur the lines between art and furniture.
