LED pendant light in ball shape with extra long cable
String Light is a LED luminaire of a different kind. The extra-long cable and the innovative concept of the pendant luminaire with spherical head from Flos allow architectural and novel lighting solutions for private and commercial areas.
Designer Michael Anastassiades says he was inspired by three things for the Flos String Light : "When I'm on the train and traveling, from the window I always see these power lines connecting the utility poles. And as we race along at high speed, I see these completely parallel lines and find myself under the spell of this incredible discipline - how is that possible? It's just so magnificent how they connect the power lines and divide the landscape at the same time. I wanted to transfer this vision into an inner environment.
I like how people use light to delineate spaces, especially outdoors. Think of a village square at night in the Mediterranean. The people there have strings of lights hanging squarely from four poles. It would be as if they were announcing, "This is where the party is." It is the lights that delineate this activity.
And the last reason, which is the most practical, is how to move lights when the power outlets are always where you least want them. So how can you put them where you want them without effort and in a poetic way?"
Flos String Light : Novel and flexible
Equipped with a 12-meter cable, the Flos String Light pendant lamp allows geometric patterns to be drawn in the room. Rooms take on new architectural dimensions. If necessary, the cables can be rearranged to create a new mood in the room, patterns from clear linearity to abstract art are possible.
Last but not least, the novel concept of Flos String Light is very practical: the luminaire can be suspended independently of existing connections. If necessary, the impression of the luminaire can be completely redesigned and the luminaire can be used in a completely different way. Also technically the Flos String Light ball head can be seen: The diffuse light can be switched on and off by a touch sensor on the luminaire head and dimmed continuously. The energy-saving LED bulb produces with 2700 K warm white light for a pleasant ambience.
Excellent luminaire including auxiliary material for installation
Due to its extensive accessories, there are virtually no limits to the wealth of combinations of the String Light . A host of examples and suggestions for different installations are also supplied, including blank sample rooms in which you can draw your personal configuration. The coaxial cable of the luminaire, which is made of die-cast aluminum, is reinforced with Kevlar.
The geometric luminaire from Flos is also available as String Light cone head with a cone-shaped luminaire body. Both versions are also available with a 22 meter cable upon request. Both the spherical and conical head luminaires are available in several color finishes.
