The Mobile Chandeliers are delicate structures balanced in perfect equilibrium. Constructed following the principles of a mobile, these are arrangements of linear tubes, geometric light sources, reflective surfaces and counterbalancing weights. The pieces rotate freely and delicately, creating an ever-changing lighting configuration unique to the space they occupy. Each Mobile Chandelier is individually tailored to ensure the balance of its approximately 200 hand-crafted patinated-brass components. Every piece is unique in its dimension and compositional balance, due to the varying weight of the mouth-blown opaline glass.

The Philosophical Egg was realised as an homage to the mysterious pendant that appears in the famous altar painting Brera Madonna by Piero della Francesca. The various fixtures featured reflect the same architectural approach that the artist represents in the painting. The refined composition of primordial shapes with an illuminated ostrich-egg-shaped oval allows the light to become the central focus of the space. The collection comprises various pendants and sconces and features a new petrol blue powder-coated finish.

One of the most recognisable designs by Michael Anastassiades Studio, the Ball Lights consists of pendants, wall pendants and ceiling and wall sconces. Designed around existing incandescent bulbs of that time, the project began as an exercise to abstract the bulb into a perfectly spherical ball, celebrating its perfect shape by repeating it in metal.

The Composition series includes a floor and table lamp. They consist of sculptural, elementary forms stacked to create simple, balanced compositions. Each fixture is formed of two cylindrical legs balancing a circular disk, with the Floor Composition grounded by a solid sphere. Illumination is through a bespoke LED circuit with a perspex diffuser, which softly distributes the light downward. Both Floor Composition and Table Composition are produced in an earthen red, powder-coated finish based on a brass patina developed specially by the Studio.

The result of a carefully curated take on an existing series of products, the Brass Architectural collection brings together the simplicity and elegance that characterises Michael Anastassiades’ aesthetic. Through a formal economy of shapes and materials, these architectural features call for an understanding of luxury as a discreet presence: glass, brass and nickel articulate a geometric, minimalistic alphabet of forms that adorn the space with luminosity akin to a piece of jewellery.

In Between is a powerful, fully dimmable uplighter consisting of two identical aluminium discs separated by a transparent glass tube. The upper disc appears to be floating as it elegantly projects the light upwards. Running along the middle of the tube is a thin cable that expresses the power source of the light – a subtle reference to the famous Bauhaus table lamp designed by Wilhelm Wagenfeld in 1924.

On My Mind is a table or floor lamp that resembles a head resting on its side, or a balloon lightly touching the ground. The shape of the lamp allows it to roll freely on surfaces, allowing the light to be expressed through movement, rather than just as a stationary object.

This collection of fixtures uses the standard unit of the light tube as a measure. Through the alternation of 1m and 0.5m modules, it creates a rhythmic language of recording space. The designs evolve as a parallel progression of rods, combining five variations of standard linear LED bulbs and metal tubes of the same diameter. With this series, Michael Anastassiades expands the compositional possibilities of some of the most structural elements of lighting, engaging the viewer in a rigorous yet playful exercise in measuring.

Somewhere in the Middle, To the Top and Rest pay homage to Wilhelm Wagenfeld and Carl Jakob Jucker’s MT8 Lamp – also known as the Bauhaus Lamp. Their work was designed in 1924, and is one of the purest expressions of Bauhaus theory. This series features cut opaline spheres resting on different configurations of identical brass sections.
