Entry Description

Sfera W has been inspired by the famous Escher self-portrait, playing on the mirror surface effect that captures the reflection of the observer. This spherical mirror reflects the setting it is placed in, with an illuminating effect even when switched off.
Conceived as a sphere touching the wall, it has no visible mechanical fastening, and the direction of the beam of light emitted can be chosen when the lamp is fitted, depending on how the bracket is
positioned. Although the light source is not visible, in order to guarantee the perfect elegance of the spherical shape, an asymmetric lens enables the recovery of much of the light flow emitted by the
COB LED.
Sfera W is also dimmable with TRIAC technology, and available on request also for DALI systems.
It can be used individually or in multiple compositions, to diversify the light effects created or to amplify the surprising interplay of reflected images

Sustainability Approach

The lamp is made in metal and has been designed to last over time and .
Sfera W is equipped with a latest generation COB LED (equivalent to a 110W halogen bulb), that guarantees energy saving.
Sfera W packaging is made in recyclable materials.
