The FLOS Story
Founded in 1962, FLOS is an Italian design company started by brothers Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni and Tobia Scarpa in Merano, northern Italy. FLOS light fixtures are high-concept, quality Italian lighting fixtures that serve as works of art, some of which have even become icons in the contemporary lighting field. Experimenting in new techniques, brothers Achille and Pier created contemporary lighting fixtures with artistic verve, making design history with their unique cocoon-like fixtures created by spraying resin over a steel structure. With its own ‘flosophy,’ FLOS designs within guidelines that believe light is more than just a basic need. FLOS uses experimentation, intuition and having fun to define and stand apart. FLOS is the recipient of many awards over its history, including Interior Design’s Best of Year Award in 2019, the Compasso d’Oro Award in 2020 and the Nycx Design Award in 2021. Today, FLOS exports to more than 80 countries and has stores in Rome, Milan, Paris, New York and more.
Key Features
Illuminate your environment with the Almendra LED Linear Suspension by FLOS. This meticulously designed work of art is the realized vision of European artisan Patricia Urquiola. She set out to create a light fixture that evokes the feeling of leaves lightly careening in the air. The curvaceous metal frames do indeed live to their nature-inspired theme. Within these frames are shades of polycarbonate, which are neatly enveloped. A canopy at your ceiling attaches to the suspension’s horizontal crossbar to ensure that the collection of lights is effortlessly suspended in midair. LEDs hang overhead to bring light to your venue with ease. Patricia Urquiola’s many decades of study in the Italian design discipline continue to provide her with the ingenuity and resourcefulness employed in making this light fixture and many others that have become present-day decorative favorites.
FLOS was first established in 1962 in Merano, Italy, to produce high quality modern lighting. This Italian lighting company continues to do so to this day by collaborating with talented international designers and researching the latest lighting technologies and materials. Resulting FLOS lighting fixtures are daring and provocative, yet uphold the fundamental principles of good design.

HalogenLumens
The amount of light that comes from a bulb, which has commonly been measured in watts. The more lumens, the brighter the bulb.Wattage
A measurement of the power delivered to a component of an electric circuit (allowing a one-ampere current to flow through the component under the pressure of 1 volt.)Bulb Shape
Bulb shapes are denoted with a letter, which describes the shape, and a number, which indicates the size. The number indicates the diameter of the light bulb at its widest part in eighths of an inch.Base
The part of the bulb that connects to the fixture and its power supply. Bulb bases are denoted with the letter E, and a number which indicates the diameter of the bulb base at its widest part in millimeters.Voltage
Indicates how much voltage a bulb can accept via the fixture it's installed in.Light Color Temperature
The relative color from a light source, measured on the Kelvin temperature scale. Warm light is lower in color temperature (2700-3000 K) and cool, blue light is higher (5000 K).Average Rated Life
The average amount time that a bulb is expected to last.CRI
CRI = color rendering index. This number, which can go from 0 to 100, measures the ability of a light or bulb accurately renders colors. The higher the number, the better, with most quality bulbs these days measuring at least in the 80s.Manufacturer IDs: view
