CORALIS #1

Designed by French designer Virginie Moriette, the ‘Humanis & Coralis’ collection explores how human beings intimately relate to nature, while celebrating the cultural connection and the relationship between space and light. With their rich array of colors, patterns, marbles and oxidized bronze finishes, the twelve art lights are deliberately designed to trigger emotions. Their communicative presence defines an atmosphere, whether they are on or off, alone or with their companions in a daring installation.

Inspired by plants and underwater coral imagery, the organic, often brightly-colored shapes in the ‘Coralis’ series create a spirited, dynamic and playful atmosphere. Each lamp features a lacquered metal tree with clean contours, as if designed with scissors. Their sharp, dancing shapes are reminiscent of Matisse's paper cut-outs. This evocation of plants, whether leaf or tree, rests on an oval stand made of polished marble, whose patterns and veins enhance the sense of nature.
