Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- Aloura’s complex form becomes the focal point of any space. Its bold, sculptural presence fills the interior with dynamic light and a visual experience that shifts continuously from every viewpoint.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Available in three standard colors with matching or contrasting combinations, and in three diameters: 107 cm, 136 cm, and 181 cm. The light source is a replaceable E27 bulb (15 W, 1500 lm), housed inside a frosted glass inner shade. Thanks to its highly parameterized design and 3D-printed core, the lamp can also be customized in size. Delivered partially assembled in a single cardboard box.

- Production Technology
- The lamp’s structure features a signature 3D-printed core paired with anodized aluminum tubes, creating a surprisingly lightweight yet refined composition. Despite its complex form, it is easy to assemble and can be shipped in a compact box.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenge was to ensure easy assembly despite the large scale, while also enabling a fully replaceable light source. Optimizing the 3D-printed core in particular was a complex task. It was essential that the lamp could be shipped disassembled to reduce its environmental footprint, yet still be assembled quickly and effortlessly.
- Research
- The goal of the project was to create a particularly striking and unusual, yet elegant modern chandelier, optimized for hotel interiors and loft spaces. A highly parametric CAD design was a key part of the development process and, together with the 3D-printed core, allows the lamp to be easily adapted in size to specific customer requirements.
- Inspiration
- Aloura is mainly inspired by modern sculpture, combining bold, sculptural presence with refined elegance. Its flowing lines and soft, nature-inspired forms create a sense of effortless sophistication.
- Project Duration
- This Budapest based project started in June 2025 and finished in October 2026. Its first exhibition was Blickfang Vienna 2025.
- Operation Flow
- The lamp is easy to operate, just like any standard ceiling light.
