Acerca de Capsule Collection Volume 01 Colección de Iluminación

Capsule Collection Volume 01 es un conjunto de tres luminarias fabricadas en vidrio, acrílico y metal. La suspensión io se conforma mediante extrusión de vidrio por gravedad, que convierte un trazado circular en una forma cilíndrica acanalada. Los componentes quedan ocultos, de modo que el vidrio refleja y refracta la luz. Halftone es una luminaria de pared con un patrón grabado sobre acrílico translúcido, que genera un anillo de luz mientras el muro permanece visible. Orb es un aplique de pared compuesto por una esfera iluminada y un espejo de aumento ajustable que se desplaza a su alrededor, idóneo para su uso junto al espejo del baño.

Propiedades Únicas: Consistent with the Astro creative ethos, that good design demands simplicity, the io Pendant, Halftone and Orb transcend seasons and trends being functional yet beautiful, with each design unique from the materials selected through to the individual challenges that had to be overcome. The Capsule collection provided the platform to liberate our creative process and reinforce Astro’s design led approach. It honors the DNA of core Astro product, but with a confidence to hold their own in any space. Each are bold and visually strong, with a delicacy that quietly compliments a design scheme.

Tecnología de Producción: Astro products need to operate effortlessly so one does not even consider the engineering solution that lies at the heart of it. This is true with the Orb where the moving parts are robust yet offer a sense of lightness, masking a complex engineering solution behind its simplicity. Using gravity-fed extrusion, the io Pendant takes a circular 2D design and extrudes the glass downwards to create a perfectly ribbed cylindrical form. The components are discreetly hidden so the glass plays the lead, subtly reflecting and refracting the light. Halftone, focuses on the simple form of a circle with a subtle pattern gradient beginning from the outer edge, increasing with intensity to create a vivid ring of light. The transparency of the acrylic allows the wall to still be visible, both when the light is switched on or off.
Desafío de Diseño: Astro products have always been guided by our creative ethos that 'good design demands simplicity' and our collections aren’t dictated by trends. They are rooted firmly in the now, but with a timeless quality that avoids the vagaries of fashion. Our goal is to create products that withstand the test of time, not to be frequently replaced and we take care to refine and consider each element, so product blends seamlessly with any space for many years to come. The engineering of each product must be of the highest standard. We ensure only essential components are included, without compromising on the design aesthetic.
Investigación: James Bassant: “Mechanical machines have always fascinated me; gears, cogs, chains and their interactions in analogue mechanical devices. My love of lights and my fascination with Orreries obsessed me to design the Orb, an orb of light at its centre about which a planet mirror orbits… For years I kept coming back and refining the design to capture the essence of an Orrery in a functional light, the Orb.
Riley Sanders: “The io Pendant light takes inspiration from the fluted detailing of the ancient Greek Ionic pillars. Using the unique production process of gravity-fed glass extrusion, the io Pendant takes a circular 2D design and extrudes the glass downwards to create a perfectly ribbed cylindrical form. I wanted the glass to be the hero of the product, so we stripped all unnecessary components to keep it as simple and minimal as possible, allowing light to subtly reflect and refract off the glass.
The concept for the Halftone also began as a basic pencil to paper sketch, focusing on the simple form of a circle. I then started to look at how incorporating an intricate pattern could be used to bring translucent, clear acrylic to life. We experimented with different processes, settling on the precision that laser etching achieves.”
Inspiración: Capsule collection volume 01 presents a unique trio of luminaires that extend far beyond their function. Created by cofounder James Bassant and senior designer Riley Sanders, each design started as pencil sketch, taking inspiration from the world around us. Inspired by the mechanical perfection of an orrery, the Orb wall light presents an illuminated spherical ball, with a fully adjustable and magnifying mirror that orbits around the luminaire at its centre, whereas io Pendant takes inspiration from the fluted detailing of the ancient Greek ionic pillars. A fusion between art, technology and science, the Halftone wall light focuses on the simple form of a circle with an intricate pattern delicately etched on translucent acrylic.
Duración del Proyecto: The project began in 2019 at Astro Headquarters in Harlow, Essex. The collection was complete and launched in UK and Europe in the Spring of 2020
Flujo de Operación: Orb presents an illuminated spherical ball, with a fully adjustable and magnifying mirror that ‘orbits’ around the luminaire at its centre. Primarily designed to be positioned alongside a bathroom mirror, the Orb provides useful task lighting with an appreciable sense of design and can be partnered with the single Orb light version.

io Pendant would add a sense of drama and elegance to any space but look particularly striking in a dining setting as the pendant is dimmable and allows you to easily control the mood and create a unique lighting experience.

Halftone is ideal for a hospitality setting such as an entrance way or as a sculptural installation within a space thanks to the transparency of the acrylic material which allows the wall to still be visible, both when the light is switched on or off.
