Design by\u00a0Antoni Arola<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThe ambition behind Flamingo XXL<\/a> is to make its presence felt in the communal spaces where it\u2019s installed<\/em>\u201d\u00a0Antoni Arola<\/a><\/h2>\n

Expansive spaces and tall ceilings are the natural habitat for which Flamingo XXL<\/strong><\/a> has been created. A large chandelier style lamp with a contemporary and sculptural feel<\/strong> where the floating circles of light generate a radiance. Elegant and light weight its design allows for the lighting of multiple type ambiences.<\/p>\n

Based on a simple white translucent disk Antoni Arola<\/a> has masterfully modulated light. By deconstructing and pulling apart the source and body of the lamp. The sum of the plates and the variable distances through which they can be separated multiplies the effect<\/strong>. Together with the suspension system via wires, an ethereal and delicate yet rounded illumination is achieved.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe challenge was to project a light over the shades rather than surround the source. The result is an ethereal effect, deconstructed light<\/em>\u201d explains Antoni Arola<\/a><\/p>\n

\"VibiaWhen installed within a double height space the lamp\u2019s volume brings something additional to that space and thanks to its ethereal <\/span>character it manages not to dominate.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Flamingo XXL<\/a> allows for seven different configurations<\/strong>. The various aesthetic solutions are the result of a detailed luminance study that guarantees maximum diffusion and light reflection. Antoni Arola<\/a> has managed to squeeze the most possible from each hanging lamp, with indirect ambient light qualities and more direct point lighting.<\/p>\n

This allows for it to be inserted into diverse situations: over a large meeting room table or the void of a grand staircase. The hanging lamp version is provided with a counter weight, held just a few centimetres above the floor level, replacing the typical floor lamp and lightening it. The ambition to occupy large spaces makes it the perfect lamp for double and triple height spaces, for areas within hotel establishments and even public buildings.<\/p>\n

The first version of Flamingo<\/strong><\/a> was recognised with the Wallpaper* Design Award<\/em> 2017 and the Design Plus Award<\/em> powered by Light+Building<\/em> 2016.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s surprising to see the different illuminated disks separated from the light source. That allows for many gradations and effects<\/em>\u201d<\/strong> Antoni Arola<\/a><\/p>\n
