‘Troag’ light by Luca Nichetto for Foscarini and Clayton Oxford Contemporary Rectangular Island Ceiling Light

'Troag' light by Luca Nichetto for Foscarini

Italian designer Luca Nichetto has created a new pendant light for Foscarini, which will be launched during next week’s Salone del Mobile in Milan. The decidedly linear piece takes a formal cue from the traditional ‘troag’, a canoe-shaped wooden bowl used in Lapland, which the designer encountered on a visit to the region.

Available in varying lengths, the lamp is fabricated from a single piece of wood. Light is diffused both downwards and upwards, the latter thanks to a slit that runs long the top of the shade. Given its linearity, ‘Troag’ is particularly suited for illuminating long tables or large open spaces.

A Green-Take on this minimal and sleek lighting concept is Clayton Oxford's, Contemporary Rectangular Island Ceiling Light, a contemporary in style and form, the Rectangle Shaped Hanging Island Ceiling Fixture light features reverse cut concave Brown Lipp Shell inlays with Stainless Steel Mounts. Sleek and minimalist in design and style, this transitional to contemporary ceiling light is ideal over a bar / kitchen setting or even a to be used as a modern pool table light.

Also available as a single rail and a wall sconce.
