Nimba 90 is Antoni Arola's cloud-like LED pendant: a white PVC shade stretched over a matte stainless steel frame. The 90 is one of four sizes, 60, 90, 120 and 180.
The Design Story
Antoni Arola designed Nimba in 1997. Its soft, wide shade gives an even, diffused light, and the four sizes scale from a small table to a large hall.
About the Designer
Barcelona designer Antoni Arola treats light as his raw material. Winner of Spain’s National Design Prize in 2003, he has created some of Santa & Cole’s most recognisable families, from the porcelain Cirio to Lámina, Nimba, Moaré and the Shiro lanterns.
