This amazing Flos Skygarden Suspension Light was designed by Marcel Wanders in 2007, and it has won the Elle Decoration International Design Awards in 2008. It is a much anticipated new pendant series designed by Marcel Wanders - providing direct down-light, this range is inspired by an antique decorated plaster ceiling in the designers previous home. The design features fine detail including leaves, flowers, and branches.A major departure in pendant light design - the Flos Skygarden Suspension Lamp offers a smooth contemporary outer body with a contrasting relief plaster effect interior finish depicting floral imagery (very similar to that of a ceiling rose or coving) - great solution for creating a contemporary meets traditional interior look. The light bulb cover has a laser cut pattern featuring one of Marcel Wanders' design patterns. Also, Skygarden is finished in a metal structure with a chalk white plaster relief.
