Lighting is an essential tool for any residential interior. It provides the necessary illumination that a home needs to provide proper functionality and comfort any time of the day, of course lighting is essentially a decorative ornament as well. Many homes prefer to have a selection of lighting sources to provide a variety of ambiance and appeal. Designing light fixtures is a daunting task since it should work well with the space, improve or uplift that space and provide sufficient lighting or ambiance for a cozier experience. This is the design challenge which Tobia Scarpa took in 1973. It is essential to create both ambiance and lighting at the same time for making the look extra special.
The materials
The FLOS Ariette is a chic lighting fixture made of polyamide and fabric. A lightweight material, this is a perfect wall and ceiling lighting fixture. At the center is a compartment where the light bulb is secured. When the bulb is turned on, the light is diffused through the filtering effect of the fabric. Along the edges, the light bounces off, creating a halo effect. The resulting light is soft, and it provides relatively good lighting appeal.
Versatility
The square shape of the FLOS Arriete gives it a unique edge. As a wall ornament, the FLOS Arriete is a very modern, minimalist and stylish lighting fixture. It is not too fussy, it has a desirable edge and it can be adjusted angularly to create depth on a bare wall. If you have a bare wall, this is a fantastic functional decorative piece that you would want to incorporate.
Ambiance
As a ceiling fixture, the FLOS Ariette essentially works like clouds. The semi opaque fabric creates a soft and mild lighting appeal perfect for living rooms as well as ambient lighting for bedrooms. The light comes off as intense in the middle, soft on the surface with the halo effect around the edges.
Perfect on any wall or ceiling surface
Since the material is white. The Ariette can work perfectly on nearly every wall or ceiling material. Essentially, this one looks best on matte walls. This fixture adds a needed depth as it does not sit or hang flat on the wall. The depth intensifies the overall appeal of the space. The minimalist flair, dynamic appeal and lighting capabilities of the Ariette makes this fixture a fantastic decorative tool for your home. Experience a mild calming light from Ariette.
