I don’t know about you guys, but to me this unusual ceiling lamp reminded me of liquid mercury glass or metal. For those with the deep pockets looking to install a constellation of otherworldly, amorphous, metallic ova on their ceiling, Skydro might be just the ticket.
In its broad appropriation of elemental forms, this innovative Ross Lovegrove lamp evokes heaven and earth, the skies above and below the earth, the vastness of space and the composite mysteries of the molten pressure in the bowels of the earth. The light also resembles a lustrous interstellar pebble polished to a satiny sheen by undiscovered forces.
The lamp has a mirror-treated die-cast aluminum diffuser and a painted steel bearing structure. The light source is LED and the whole piece is a visionary’s dream: individual units can be added and assembled for custom applications, creating opportunities for a whole nest of skydivers in corridors within salons. I also think Skydro is a great idea if you want to add a touch of galaxy to your space, which is a hot trend right now.
