PÉTALE COLLECTION LAUNCH EVENT

Pétale Collection Launch event
STUDIO ARISTOTELIS BARAKOS

Like petals from a precious flower carried by the wind, the pendant lights of Pétale collection add  a sense of understated beauty in any space. From show-stopping “petal clouds” that rise  multiple metres in height, to a single pendant casting a soft light on a bedside table, Pétale is a  versatile modular system that can be combined in an unlimited number of arrangements.  

The French word pétale comes from the Greek petalo, both meaning the petal of a flower. They  originate from the Ancient Greek word petalon, which initially meant a plant leaf or a thin metal  plate. The two meanings of the ancient word exist in this new lighting collection, combining  ethereal lightness with solid metal craftsmanship.  

A single Pétale unit is made of two round metal plates enfolding a cylindrical spotlight. This  unique shape creates an illusion of flatness, but at the same time allows for different geometries  to appear, depending on the angle from which the pendant is seen. Its curved surfaces catch the  light beautifully — a feature that, in combination with the subtle rotation of the pendants due to  moving air, creates a mesmerising visual effect.  

In addition to freeform arrangements, Pétale may also be lined up, creating custom rows of lights  that can illuminate tables, desks, reception counters and many more.  

Pétale invites architects and designers to compose with light as if with flower petals, creating  unique spatial atmospheres where material precision meets poetic grace. This new Studio  Aristotelis Barakos collection is currently available in gold satin brushed brass, with more  finishes becoming available in the future.
