Marcel Wanders Designs the Skynest Lighting for FLOS

— January 31, 2023 — Art & Design
Dutch designer Marcel Wanders designs the new Skynest lighting series for FLOS that is able to brighten up the space and the overall fixture. It has twenty-four LED light sticks that are carefully woven and threaded onto the 48 tubes of textiles.

When coming together, it creates a three-dimensional shape similar to a spirograph and is captivating due to the geometric design. It features a basket-like shade and comes in four colorways including Blue Tormaline, Brick, Anthracite, and Almond. The illumination has a dynamic shape and at a closer look, there is the intricate rope-look design. The series also features a range of model shapes that includes a pendant, wall light, ceiling light, and a ceiling-to-floor light.
