![]() ![]() "Ich habe von Beginn an viel kreativen Freiraum erhalten und eine herausragende Unterstützung in allen technischen Fragen", erzählt er. Die Zusammenarbeit von Flos mit dem in London lebenden Designer begann bereits im Jahr 2011. ![]() Für die Finishes der Oberflächen kann indes zwischen Champagner und Silber gewählt werden, die im Wechsel mit den Lichtstreifen einen optisch spannenden Kontrast bieten. ![]() "Ich möchte stets den perfekten Glow im Licht erreichen", so Anastassiades. Die Lichtfarbe ist dabei mit 2700k mit einem warmen Unterton sehr angenehm für das Auge. Je nachdem wie die Elemente kombiniert werden, verändert sich der Effekt im Raum: "Coordinates" wird von der minimalistischen Leuchte zu einem komplexen Statement. Nun bietet FLOS die Möglichkeit mit "Coordinates" jede denkbare Architektur zu bespielen: Zur Kollektion gehören unter anderem vier Kronleuchter in verschiedenen Größen, drei Pendelleuchten, eine Stehleuchte sowie ein wiederholbares Modul, das direkt unter der Decke installiert werden kann oder sich abhängen lässt. And adds: "My collaboration with Flos is characterized by mutual trust and for me that is the key to creating visionary lighting solutions."Įinst war das Lichtsystem nur für die Ausstattung des Restaurants "Four Seasons" in New York City gedacht, das vom Architekt Isay Weinfeld vor zwei Jahren umgestaltet wurde. "From the start I have been given a lot of creative freedom and received excellent support on all the technical issues," he says. Flos’ collaboration with the London-based designer began back in 2011. The finish of the surfaces in champagne, alternating with the light strips, offers an exciting visual contrast. "I always want to achieve the perfect glow," says Anastassiades. With 2700 k the light color has a warm underdone that is very easy on the eye. The overall effect differs depending on how the elements are combined and what began as a minimalist luminaire morphs into a complex statement. Now in the form of "Coordinates" Flos has launched a system that can be employed in any conceivable setting: Among other things the collection includes four chandeliers in various sizes, three pendant luminaires, one standard lamp, and a repeatable module that can be either ceiling mounted or suspended. Initially the system was only intended as feature lighting for the "Four Seasons" restaurant in New York City that was refurbished two years ago by architect Isay Weinfeld. "I not only studied visual arts but also civil engineering, so I look at things with a practically oriented mind, I seek out the structures," Anastassiades explains. He took his inspiration from René Descartes’ mathematical concept of Cartesian coordinates in which the axes are positioned vertically to one another and all coordinate lines are at a constant distance to each other. Essentially, his design for FLOS consists of aluminum tubes fitted with LED strips whose elements can be combined with one another. ![]() Simultaneously, the collection needed to offer a variety of options for defining the space – ranging from the intensive to the pared-back," comments designer Michael Anastassiades. "The challenge was to create something that has a sculptural character. They are indeed minimalist lighting objects that can be combined to create an eye-catching installation. "Coordinates" can be described as softly glowing geometric lines that form grids and run the length of a room as if measuring it. ![]()
