🇨🇿 When light recreates the feeling of sunlight filtering through the trees! ☀️
Head to Prague in the Czech Republic for the Designblok 2026 festival to discover a monumental light installation created by Slovak artist Lousy Auber for the Ploom brand.
Presented at the National Gallery in Prague, this creation fits perfectly with the festival’s theme: light.
🌿 A monumental light installation inspired by nature.
The artist’s idea? To create a massive lampshade under which visitors can sit, away from the hustle and bustle of the festival, to enjoy a moment of calm.
Inside, a lighting system reproduces a fascinating effect: that of sunlight filtering through the foliage of trees.
🖤 And this is where Barrisol Chronos® truly shines!
Thanks to the properties of our black sheet, the light fixture maintains a dark, black appearance when turned off. As soon as the built-in light sources turn on, the light passes through the sheet and reveals effects that were previously invisible.
This technology allows you to play with contrasts and transform atmospheres.
🌱 Barrisol is committed to environmental sustainability.
Our Barrisol® fabrics are 100% recyclable, and our Barrisol Biosourcée® line has an EPD showing a carbon footprint of 1.36 kg CO₂e/m², including recycling.
〰️ Kudos to our partner CS Lyon Praha for building the structure that brings this extraordinary geometric creation to life.
👏 Congratulations to Lousy Auber, LM Studio Milano, Jiří Karvánek, CS Lyon Praha, and all the teams who participated in this project!
