The Design Story
A sculpture, a light and/or both, Skydro consists of a mirrored ABS injection-molded reflective unit, a mirrored die-cast aluminum lighting unit and a painted steel bearing structure. For sculptural purpose only, the integrated lighting unit is not specified. Template configuration possible for multiple-unit assembly allowing a range of configurations – electrified or not.

Ross Lovegrove (born 1958 in Wales) is an industrial designer whose work draws on the logic and beauty of nature. From furniture to transport to lighting, his designs are known for fluid, organic forms.
Why You'll Love It

- Without integrated lighting unit (non-electrified).
- Optional template available to help assemble multiple units.
- Lighting unit in die-cast aluminum mirror treated. -Bearing structure in painted steel.
Made for Real Life
Perfect for living rooms, bedrooms, offices and hospitality spaces. Good to know: it is made for dry indoor rooms, an electrician should hardwire it and special-order options come from Italy in 10–16 weeks.
