13/06/2024 - The new
Flos lamps from the
Decorative,
Architectural and
Outdoor divisions are at the center of the display created for
3daysofdesign in Copenhagen.
The Flos showroom in Kuglegårdsvej hosts the collections recently presented at Milan Design Week: the Special Edition IC 10 Anniversary by Michael Anastassiades; the suspension and table lamps Bellhop Glass by Barber & Osgerby; and the visionary SuperWire by Formafantasma, a family comprising suspension, table and floor models, featuring a bespoke lighting filament.
Among the Spring 2024 novelties, already available in the European markets, Flos will highlight some outstanding architectural collections, such as the streamlined, highly technological Emi, designed by Erwan Bouroullec, and the Workmates series by Flos Architectural, a family of professional luminaires created for the world of the office, that push the boundaries of workspace illumination to new dynamics.
Taking inspiration from this year’s theme of 3daysofdesign, Dare to Dream, Flos will showcase the dreamlike installation Golden Hour, conceived by Michael Anastassiades to celebrate his first design for Flos, the iconic IC Light, whose concept was originally inspired by the curved trajectory of a ball thrown by a juggler.
“I came across an online video clip of a contact juggler”, recalls Michael Anastassiades. “He was spinning a set of spheres, in the palm of his hands and up on his arms. There were moments when the spheres would seem perfectly still, on the edge of his fingers. Only if you looked very closely could you see them spinning around to achieve the balance. I got mesmerized by the magic of his skill and wanted to capture the exact moment. This was my starting point”. To celebrate the 10th anniversary of this contemporary icon, Flos and Michael have launched a special edition in gold finish and new impressive sizes.
To coincide with 3daysofdesign, Flos has also planned the fourth episode of Flos Hosting, a new series of warm events to host talents and share stories of design, architecture and creativity in Flos’ showrooms around the world. After Milan, Paris and Amsterdam, Flos Hosting Copenhagen will offer an inspirational design conversation between legendary designer Michael Anastassiades and Pin-Up creator Felix Burrichter: an intimate reflection on the idea of timelessness, that will take place on Friday 14th June at 10.30 am, followed by a friendly picnic brunch on the grass of the historical courtyard.
