About Aloura Jiro Mihantona

Aloura dia jiro mihantona natao ho an'ny atitranon'ny hotely, ny efitrano loft ary ny efitrano lehibe hafa. Ny endriny toy ny sary sokitra dia manome fisehoana matanjaka ho an'ny jiro, ary miova ny endriny rehefa jerena avy amin'ny lafiny samihafa ny hazavana. Ny firafiny dia mampifangaro fototra vita amin'ny fanontam-pirinty 3D sy fantsona aliminioma nasiana anodizasiona, izay mitazona ny vongany ho maivana lanja. Misy jiro E27 azo soloina ao anatin'ny takela-jiro anatiny vita amin'ny fitaratra manjavozavo. Savaivo telo sy loko telo no atolotra, ary ny famolavolana parametrika dia mamela habe hafa. Ny jiro dia alefa efa voarafitra amin'ny ampahany ao anaty baoritra iray voafintina.

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.
