Hope, Pendant Light by Francisco Gomez Paz and Paolo Rizzatto

Hope designed by Francisco Gomez Paz and Paolo Rizzatto has been seen last week at Milan Design Week. It is a pendant light that could be defined as an innovative interpretation of traditional chandeliers. Both use hundreds of crystal pieces that multiply and diffuse the light.

For the designers the biggest challenge was to transform the heavy and fragile crystals of old style chandeliers into something that would capture and refract the light in the same way. The answer came after a long creative and technical research into the shaping of extra slim polycarbonate sheet and applying the principle of Fresnel lenses to reproduce the same optical qualities of glass.

The polycarbonate lenses have a high gloss external surface, while the internal surface presents a series of concentric micro-prisms that reduce the size of the light source and elimihttp://cubeme.com/blog/wp-admin/post-new.phpnates the glare effect.
