Arthropod Collection

Lebanese designer Ghassan Salameh presented at Milan Design Week 2014 a series of lighting fixtures inspired by the arthropods species.

The idea behind the Arthtopod Collection was to create a customizable product able to fit in the space in a flexible way, according to the individual's needs, moods and practicality of the lighting effect desired.

The fixtures are made out of raw iron, having an industrial "natural" feel with movable joints all along the axles.
Each joint rotates in 4 different angles allowing the user to direct and redirect the lighting according to the space's need.

The light source at the top of the fixture is made out of aluminium, where it remains the only part that is carefully painted and treated to highlight the piece together allowing a mixture of raw and polished finishing.

The collection is still under development and the most of the pieces are produced following a commission or a request from interested buyers.
