ron gilad: wallpiercing for flos


the lights are used in groupings to create a graphic wall covering


italian manufacturer flos in collaboration with new york based designer, ron gilad
has created 'wallpiercing', an adaptive lighting system for vertical surfaces.

the ring-shaped light offers a range of graphic and lighting effects when used
alongside others. by linking multiple units together, users are able to create a
customizable collage that spans any desired length or height. LED light sources
produce a diffused luminosity in a range of colors and intensities,  altering the
appearance and mood of the environment it is placed within.

the lamps, which are housed within a cast aluminum and polycarbonate shell,
are seamlessly submerged into the wall, eliminating the appearance of housings
and brackets.
