String Lights

Michael Anastassiades for FLOS - 2014

Michael Anastassiades has said “when I sit on a train traveling, I always see these strings of electricity out of the window. It’s so beautiful and poetic the way they connect the pylons but at the same time they divide the landscape. I wanted to translate this into interior architecture.” By removing all excess he has created a minimal yet daring lighting installation using either a 7.5″ sphere or cone form, suspended from an extremely long cord. The design possibilities are endless — the lights and cord combine with your space to make linear drawings. One issue he wanted to solve in an effortless and poetic way was “how to move lights when electricity points are always where you least want them to be,” thus String Lights can be purchased with either a canopy or floor power supply.
