Equalizer

We believe in the power of lighting to work with the whole of a room's architecture to create quietly enriching spaces to spend time in. 
In this spirit, we asked how lighting might be used to delineate space instead of walls or structure.  With contemporary spaces becoming more open and free-flowing, there is still a need to define zones visually and functionally.  With this need in mind, we imagined an expandable illuminated framework to respond to different interior conditions.  Equalizer was born here as a series of illuminated shapes connected by a lightweight vertical structure.

Comprised of a system of versatile modular fittings, we're able to create an expansive array of configurations from simple pendants to custom screens that undulate through spaces like room dividers.  This flexibility enables a high degree of spatial integration created in collaboration with our clients.  The results yield beautiful decorative lighting that is carefully tailored to fit the space's character and functional needs - able to fall anywhere on the spectrum from an immersive asymmetrical sculpture to a symmetrical repeating pattern.

The Equalizer collection is crafted from finely machined anodized aluminum fittings and paired with handblown glass globes by our close collaborator John Hogan, based in Seattle.  The glass is given a satin luster that emits a soft velvety glow when illuminated.  

Additionally, this collection exclusively offers the Chameleon color way, a special glass effect developed by Hogan.  The subtle gradient creates a mysterious yet magical color changing effect that shifts from sky blue to sunset pinks depending on surrounding light and viewing angle.  It's a very special option that speaks to our obsession with material wonderment and the beauty of glass in general.
