Suspended Halo Lights

The 'Nimba' LED Suspension Light Looks Like a Glowing Halo

— August 20, 2013 — Art & Design
The 'Nimba' LED suspension light from designer Antoni Arola is an intriguing piece that mimics the shape of a halo. The ethereal light sits suspended in the air as it casts a beautiful glow that conjures the image of a heavenly gathering.

The suspension light is the creation of combined simplicity with advanced technology and high-efficiency. The glowing ring is illuminated by multiple LEDs and the ethereal effect is created with a softened white inner diffuser. The Nimba is suspended from a satin nickel canopy and has an illusion effect as the cables that hold it up are nearly invisible. Arola has done a remarkable job with this design as not only is this light an education in advanced technology, but the glowing halo effect is truly distinct.
