Michael Anastassiades creates modular lighting system based on jewellery chains for Flos



The Arrangements lighting collection by Michael Anastassiades features strips and loops of LEDs in geometric shapes that combine to create chains, chandeliers and hanging walls of light.

Described by Flos as being halfway between a sculpture and a piece of industrial design, Arrangements consists of a series of tubular elements in a variety of shapes. These include a small and large square, three sizes of circle, two teardrops in different heights, a straight strip, and a strip with a sharp, 90-degree bend.

"It is no coincidence that the word 'pendant' has a double meaning, existing both as a piece of jewellery that hangs from a chain worn around the neck and a light designed to hang from the ceiling," said the designer.  

Two black ceiling roses accommodate different wattage options and create the foundation from which to suspend the lighting using a thin black wire system that disguises the power cable. 

Each shape has a band of black-painted aluminium along its inner side, hiding the electronics and connecting mechanisms to make the pieces seem as if they are just resting on each other.
The connections are made using a dovetail joint and an electric...
