Architectural element with variable suspension

Thanks to the three-point suspension on stainless steel cables (4 metres long), light can be adapted to different spaces - from high halls to intimate dining areas. This system allows for both vertical and angled positioning, giving the shade a dynamic, almost sculptural character. The white ceiling rosette then acts as a minimalist detail that does not disturb the overall visual impression.

Unique material combination

The KTribe Suspension luminaire combines two special polymers with different lighting properties - the inner opal polycarbonate (PC) provides soft diffused light, while the outer PMMA (acrylic glass) shade offers a play of transparency or smoke effect. Most interesting, however, are the versions with silver/bronze vacuum sprayed aluminium on the inside, which create a luxurious metallic glow when lit.
