Thanks to specific geometric proportions, these modules can be combined together to form endless lighting structures, from the most elemental to the most complex, both linear and curved. The BIG idea is combined with Artemide’s optoelectronic expertise to give rise to an innovative construction principle that casts continuous and comfortable light.

It is a minimal presence that conceals ultra-sophisticated optoelectronic and patented mechanical innovation as well as ground-breaking control.
