The Romans used temples to link the geometries of heaven and earth. The ILEX Temple Linear Suspension seeks to link the vertical wall to the ceiling plane through right angles and tall slim shades leading the viewer's eye upwards. Two arms extend horizontally from a central cube, each ending at a light source diffused with a Shantung silk shade. Equal parts elegant and modern, this piece will create a lit atmosphere with hints of contemporary style.
