(Italy) – WireRing from Flos now available worldwide.

Designed by Italian artist duo Formafantasma, WireRing for Flos is midway between a wall and floor lamp, providing indirect light.

It is composed of two separate elements: a custom-made belt-like electric cable and a ring that contains a LED strip. The customised tangent cable, made of coloured rubber, guarantees electrical supply to the aluminium ring that hosts the light source and acts like a heat sink.

The simple, essential design of the lamp is enhanced by refined finishes: white, grey and light pink for the cable; white, grey, pink, polished black nickel and polished gold for the ring. Cables and rings can be freely combined together, giving a unique touch to any environment.

“Disassembled, the lamp is reduced to a minimum. When mounted, it then reveals sculptural traits. WireRing is an exercise in reduction: stripped-back to its most essential components, the lamp delivers the most with the least,” say Formafantasma.
