Ringo

Above all, the Ringo collection is a brave design: a large pendant or ceiling lamp that accentuates material rather than form.

Essentially, it’s a basic geometric shape in volume but its material is astonishing, resembling a block of ice, at the same time both solid and weightless. Its designer, Joan Gaspar, has used transparent polycarbonate to create optical reflections, giving the impression of an organic design made out of glass.

Its large size is in keeping with its function, since it’s been designed to illuminate large and considerably high spaces, contemporary architectural projects ranging from hotels to contract, in which a lot of light is required. Its transparency means that it blends in readily and harmonises with the space, also when repeated. A design with an innovative proposal: its shade distributes and regulates the direct light homogeneously whilst also revealing what’s happening inside.

Ringo sets ups a dialogue between light and matter. Switched off it’s a forceful object with a strong presence; switched on its transparency defines its volume and filters the light. An interplay of opposites in which the light manages to make the material less dense and its design weightless.

Available in a ceiling version (with a fixed pole or built-in) and a pendant version, in two sizes, 70 and 90 cm, and in four finishes: green, rosé, smoke, and dark smoke. Height extension poles of 40 and 60 cm allow you to increase the drop length from the ceiling while retaining the rigid stem. It also has three colour temperatures: 27K, 30K and 40K.
