Halo Chandelier

This three-ring Halo chandelier in blackened steel draws carefully-articulated light and form into this luxurious bedroom designed by Blackberry Farm Design as part of their private residential program at Blackberry Farm. This image shows the relationship between the fixture’s LED lighting and the formal qualities of its suspension and structure. During the day, the chandelier offers a visual focal point and acts almost as piece of hung sculpture; at night, the materials recede and the emphasis transitions to the glowing rings of pure light.

Halo Chandelier

Bringing clarity and light into a space in the Natura Artis Magistra Zoo in Amsterdam, this installation of the four-ring Halo chandelier in brushed brass finish demonstrates the sculptural elements of the fixture, showing how scale and repetition work together to create something so much more evocative than the sum of its technical parts, and how fully and thoughtfully the fixture can fill the space.

Halo Pendant

Seen here in a private bathroom designed by Blackberry Farm Design for their expansion into permanent private residences at Tennessee’s renowned Blackberry Farm, the Halo circle pendant in blackened steel provides gentle and restorative illumination and offers a simple and iconic counterpoint to the rich textures of the space. Part of the fixture’s appeal for designers has often been its extraordinary programmatic flexibility; here, it seems to float, bringing weightless light and visual interest. Photo by The Ingalls.

Halo Sconce

The sconce offers an intimate version of Halo’s refined approach to LED lighting; here, installed in a lush bedroom designed by Anthony Sperduti, two Halo sconces in brushed brass offer gentle illumination, architectural delineation, and an essential combination of form and light.
