Poses, Euclid inspires the new modular lamp by Axolight

Based on design, modularity, flexibility and technique, Axolight solutions are designed to interact with the spaces and improve the general visual comfort. This is what distinguish the new Poses collection, ideal for a dynamic and architectural perception of space, as Giuseppe Scaturro, CEO of Axolight, explains:

“With Poses, our goal was to enable the designer to create countless planar geometric shapes (i.e. poses), in addition to delivering and diffusing light into interior spaces through the use of straight lines and junction points.”

Created by Axolight Lab, the multi-talented team employed by the company and guided by Art Director Magdalena Kirova, Poses draws inspiration from a reinterpretation of the Greek philosopher Euclid who, with his most famous work, “Elements”, defined primitive concepts: the point, the line and the plane.

From this study comes the project Poses, modular pendant, wall, or ceiling fixtures that can be assembled in a variety of ways to create countless geometrical shapes. The composition is achieved through the use of linear bars, with a diameter of 2.3 cm (= 0.9”), available in three different lengths (~45 cm = 18”, ~82 cm = 32”, ~142 cm = 56”), which are fitted onto circular satellites, equipped with a cover with magnetic opening and closure that guarantees – on the esthetic side – a clean look, and – on the functional side – greater ease of installation. For every circular satellite from one to four bars can be inserted in 12 different positions.

In addition to altering the shape in space, creating dynamism and volumes, Poses can also be used to redirect the orientation of the light. The bars can, in fact, be rotated by 360° to direct the beam of light, ensuring visual comfort for the viewer and the linear bars can either contain the LED source or not: in this way, the non-luminous elements acquire a fully architectural function and can be used to complete the desired geometrical design.

The most important feature of the Poses collection is the standard finish: desert white, greige, laguna aqua, earth red. Each of these finishes is the product of extensive research by the company.

Generally speaking, LED sources, integrated and dimmerable, produce up to 2.200lm (21.6w) per linear meter (= 671lm/ft). Specifically, the ~45cm bar generates a flow of 995lm (9.3w); the ~82cm bar generates a flow of 1.840lm (17.2w), the ~142cm bar generates a flow of 3.220lm (30.2w).

Finally, Poses is made up of elements produced by the Venetian artisan district, assembled by hand and tested one by one at the Axolight workshop.

With Poses, the Axolight catalogue now gains a new modular lamp, in addition to the previously existing Pivot and Liaison, according to the concept of “Design That Lasts”.
