VORTEXX lighting sculpture creates a perfect symbiosis of organic lines and surprisingly dynamic light colour modulation being suitable setting for any interior – from small and gloomy to high majestic ceiling interiors.
The charismatically curved lines conjure up a double helix that appears to flow in perpetual motion – weightless, vivid and brilliant. This impression of fluidity is emphasised by the dynamic lighting’s vibrant luminosity. The light colour of the chandelier changes continuously and almost imperceptibly. A translucent acrylic glass diffuser fits perfectly into the glass fibre-reinforced polyester luminaire with its high gloss finish to provide uniform light distribution and optimum colour mixing. RGB power LED modules, which produce indirect light in various hues, enable precise adjustment of colours; combined with the LUXMATE EMOTION lighting management system, an infinite variety of lighting scenes can be controlled and programmed.
A radiantly bright line of direct light bursts through the underside of the chandelier to penetrate the luminous interplay of colours. It precisely follows the spiral design of the chandelier, spectacularly emphasising its elegantly fluid design. Due to this resonance of vibrant lines combined with sensually coloured and brilliantly white light, VORTEXX imparts a sense of harmonious illumination to its surroundings, creating a lasting feeling of well being on whomever it shines on.

Once again, Swarovski proves that light and crystal is a match made in heaven, with this dazzling crystal-ceiling lamp. Quite simply, light reflected by crystal creates a wondrous play of luminous colour. The glittering and modern combination of metal and crystal is sure to be a focal point wherever it is located. The Crystal Boogie Pyramide is something rather out of the ordinary… its diaphanous pyramid-shaped crystal captures light and reflects it back onto the ceiling in beautiful patterns. This dramatic effect belies the lamp’s uncomplicated form, and breathes life into the precious glass. The refracted light from new, more elaborate 3-D forms seems like rediscovered dimension in lighting, which creates lush interior spaces. This lamp could be stunning focal point in any sophisticated design because crystal dictates higher standards.
As for its practical merit Boogie Pyramide is more an accessory than efficient light setting because it creates pattern and atmosphere but not sufficient illumination of a space. Thus it can be used as ambient lighting for sparkling, sensational lighting effects that will add glamour to the environment.

The chandelier measures 3 meters in diameter, with a 2 meter drop. It is made of 150 hand blown clear glass spheres measuring 20cm in diameter each, hanging in canopy formation. Munro’s chandelier is lit with fibre optics powered by a DMX projector. The colour-changing light is projected down the optical fibres (each 1.5mm thick), and each fibre ends curled into a glass sphere. The chandelier has magnificent influence over the rest of the interior by completely changing the overall colour, hence it becomes not only the focal point but also main conception of a design. Therefore when planning to use a light fitting of such kind (consider size and colour change) silent and slightly illuminated background should be provided in order to reveal its brilliance to the fullest.
A circular stainless steel plate has been secured to the ceiling for added strength. A floating ceiling was specially made and installed, in order to make the chandelier fit in the recessed ceiling correctly. The reconstruction of the ceiling comes to show that light fitting with such dimensions has limited variations for installation. Mostly these would be commercial interiors as lobbies, entrance halls, big or multi levelled restaurants, shopping malls and museums. In general any place is convenient as long as it has high ceiling and diverse visitors how can admire such an outstanding light fitting as in the relevant interior where it is visible from the street.

Spectacular lighting effects can be created using the Cascade Luminaire crystal modular lighting. Lead crystal beads and balls are strung on satin nickel mesh to shimmer and reflect as they catch the light. Superb displays can be custom-made to take advantage of the shadows and light, forming a truly opulent focal point. The setting can be installed in any indoor location – Cascade Luminaire adds luxury to living or dining rooms, ballrooms, or even bedrooms. In addition the crystal modular can be convenient asset to commercial interiors as restaurants, hotels and why not reception rooms or spa centres. While Cascade Luminaire with its warm and soft light creates mystical and relaxed mood to its viewers, it also livens the interior up with motion by spreading crystal light sparkles.
