Flos Skygarden 1 Suspension Pendant Lamp in Black designed by Marcel Wanders, Award Winning

The splendid Skygarden 1 black suspension light was designed in 2007 by Marcel Wanders for the Italian manufacturer Flos. Following its introduction at the 2007 Design Convention in Milan it has since matured into a true design icon!

This suspension luminaire exudes diffused lighting and reverses the rules by wearing its ornate decoration on the interior of the shade.The Skygarden boasts a hemispherical, mechanically-processed cast plaster diffuser, which is delicately painted white on the inside. The plaster relief augments this beautifully shaped dome suspension light, which comes in a polished black finish.

This beautiful pendant lamp pulls no expenses when it come to its material design, with the diffuser support cast in rigorous die-cast aluminum alloy, liquid-painted white. The upper bushing is also formed in a die-cast, polished aluminum alloy, safeguarded with transparent paint across the entire front.  

With the Skygarden the features don’t stop there: the adjustment screws are shaped and galvanised for added security. The transparent silicone shock absorbers, cable gland, blocking ring nut, lamp holder and fixing support are all injection-molded with PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) to make for a light fixture that is not only beautiful, but highly resistant.
