Designed and developed under the creative direction of Gabriele Chiave
at Marcel Wanders Studio,
together with a great creative and operational team.

By weaving filaments of light, the Skynest lamp seamlessly combines both elegance and technical innovation.

Skynest has the typical pendant light shape, with a central core and with what, at first glance, looks like a lampshade. The light, however, is not emitted by a bulb or by an LED board, but by the elements that form the structure of the lampshade: LED strips covered in fabric. Delicate textile tubes, integrated with LED lights, reminiscent of thread, are woven throughout the design of the lamp, creating a unique element of surprise, which challenges the bulb lighting archetype.

Skynest is composed of 24 LED light sticks covered with a two-tone textile texture. The light is emitted from one side only, the white one, while the color of the fabric remains visible on the outside. The intersection of the various light elements with 48 other colored ronds on both sides gives life to the lamp: an ethereal, very light presence, clearly inspired by the world of craftsmanship yet unexpectedly technological.
