The unusual material used for the shade – ceramic foam – gives the Reef family its inimitable character. With its cell-like structure the material has very special light characteristics and extraordinary design qualities: Switched on, the shade shimmers in gentle, atmospheric light that is diffused in a subdued manner throughout the space. From the opening in the shade, however, light is emitted directly at an extremely wide, bright, shadow-free angle. In the LED versions of the luminaire family the elegant design meets sustainable high-end technology and high energy efficiency.
