Nature is invited in our offices.
Inspired by the bird of paradise flower, Davide Oppizzi designed the Pistyle lighting collection to bring freshness and playfulness to the office. The collection’s lively colors and “yo-yo”-like base belie lighting sophisticated enough for the office. Pistyle has three axes of rotation, which allows it to offer optimal lighting regarding of the work environment. The light’s intensity also adapts on its own thanks to a tactile variator arranged on the base that also allows for ease of use. The result is a light that very much moves like a plant in nature—with intense life and vibrancy.

Floral patterns on natural fabrics such as silk, cotton and linen; dry textures on matt and opaque colours, selected from a pallet of intense shades which evoke a natural wilderness and contrast with the reality of an organized, overly planned modern life.
This soothing and stimulating concept can bring a more natural vision into our homes.
Wildflowers printed on cotton velvet, fragrant roses and bright sunflowers on linen, night birds printed on a beautiful light oriental silk or the discrete little bird surrounded by cherry blossoms printed on soft cotton, all combine in a peculiar but inevitable way due to the subtle similarities which start appearing whilst working through the collection.
Plain linens, velvets, jacquards, voiles and a variety of textures complete this story about nature, with its flowers, fragrances and colours to be explored, creating ambiences in a much more emotional and intuitive way.
