SUPERLOON

design by Jasper Morrison, 2015

Inspiration behind the design: It was a few years ago that Piero Gandini introduced Jasper Morrison to the innovative use of LED technology that became known as “Edge Lighting.” Morrison was inspired by the way it allowed him to send light sideways and how, when incorporated into the edge of a flat composite disc of translucent white material, it gave the appearance of a flat white disc. “Superloon is the answer to the question of what to do with this intriguing technology,” says Morrison. “Mounting the disc on a gyroscopic axis allows the light to be [sent] in infinite directions. The light it gives out is broad and diffused but can be dimmed to a soft glow.”.
