This bespoke light fitting illuminates Villa S, a cast in-situ concrete house in Schriesheim, southwest Germany.
The lamp delivers both internal and external coverage; works within the structural parameters of the concrete ceilings; and complements the architecture’s exacting, pared-back aesthetic. Existing fittings were unable to meet these requirements, hence the development of the villa’s very own luminaire.
The outer casing, measuring 12cm x12cm x8cm, is milled from a solid block of aluminium. Internally, the fitting comprises 49 1W LEDs mounted on a platina plate, combined with a highly polished stainless steel reflector and a specially satinized plexi-glass cover. The finished product is a low energy, high performance lamp that delivers an even spread of emitted light.
