{"product_id":"blackjack-swing-48-linear-pendant","title":"Swing 48 in Linear Pendant | Blackjack Lighting","description":"\u003cp\u003eSwing turns the suspension into the drawing. From a 48 inch canopy, three small Novo pendants hang on \"V\" cables that cross one another, so the wires trace a run of open zigzags above the lights. It looks like a line of figures caught mid-step: a fixture whose structure is as much a part of the design as the light it gives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach Novo pendant is a compact 3.75 inch cylinder with a luminous ring at its base, so the light reads as three clean halos below a web of fine lines. The canopy is shallow, 2.8 inches wide and 1.4 inches deep, and the cables adjust without cutting or splicing, with the excess coiled inside. Matte Black gives the strongest graphic contrast between the dark lines and the glowing rings; White softens the whole figure for pale ceilings and light timber.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrossing V cables:\u003c\/strong\u003e each pendant hangs from a pair of cables that cross the next, drawing zigzags above the lights.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLuminous rings:\u003c\/strong\u003e three 3.75 in (9.525 cm) Novo pendants glow from a ring at the base for a soft, defined halo.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThin profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48 in (121.92 cm) long canopy, 2.8 in (7.1 cm) wide and 1.4 in (3.5 cm) deep, driver inside.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEasy to set:\u003c\/strong\u003e three adjustable 144 in V cables, no cutting or splicing;

Trained in industrial design at Syracuse University, Blackman began his lighting career in 1984 at Sonneman Design Group, then founded Blackman Design Associates in 1988, designing decorative and architectural lighting for manufacturers including Kichler. He launched Blackjack in 2013 in suburban Chicago, now based in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, to build fixtures conceived for LED from the first sketch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHis argument is that the LED should change the shape of a light, not just its efficiency. Rather than hiding a new source inside old bulb-and-shade forms, Blackjack designs around the small, flat, cool-running LED: thin discs, slim rods, glowing rings and lenses that let the light itself become the object. In his own words, \"Decorative lighting by its nature is not primarily about optimizing lamp efficiency, it is primarily about decoration!\" Swing applies it to the Novo luminous ring: the LED becomes a clean halo, and the cables that carry it become part of the composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat is the idea behind Swing?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking the suspension part of the design.
