Discovery Vertical Suspension Lamp

By Ernesto Gismondi

Discovery is a family of appliances available in 3 diameters: Ø70, Ø100 and Ø140cm based on minimal geometry. Discovery Vertical Suspension is a seemingly unobtrusive, utterly absent and immaterial element. A very light aluminum ring houses an LED strip that injects light into a specially worked surface with micro particles so small that the surface is hardly perceptible when the appliance is turned off.

When the appliance is turned on, the transparent interior appears to fill with light as if by magic, as absence is turned into a perfectly diffusing emitting surface. This unique result is obtained through Discovery’s direct and indirect emissions, which produce an embracing and uniform light that is ideal for office environments with an UGR <19.

Artemide’s optoeletronic skills, combined with a culture of design and technological savoir-faire, product a highly innovative, emotional and multi-purpose fixture.

-Extruded and calendered aluminum structure.
