GLACIO CAST GLASS LIGHT FIXTURE
The light fixture Glacio is conceived as a cantilevered cast-glass slab of light. The quality of the cast glass gives Glacio its distinctive character. Each piece of glass is unique, cast by an art-glass studio on custom order.
The low-iron glass used captures and redirects light through reflection and refraction. The irregular surface of the glass, the evident entrapped air bubbles, and its suggestively watery appearance fulfills a desire for a connection to the natural world. The simplicity of its installation into a standard partition allows the fixture to stand out as a singular evocative element.
An LED strip is concealed inside a simple 2-part aluminum housing. The fixture is dimmable and features a tunable color temperature that ranges from a frosty bluish white to a warm yellow glow. The light is serviced by simply removing a flush access panel with concealed fasteners.
The quality of the cast glass gives Glacio its distinctive character. Each piece of glass is unique, cast by an art-glass studio on custom order.
