Emi Floor

The Emi collection stems from Erwan Bouroullec's mission to bring professional quality into lighting for domestic and hospitality settings. Proprietary Flos technology has allowed the creation of a series of compact luminaires equipped with a patented anti-glare optical unit for the utmost visual comfort.

The design of this collection comes from grouping together three light modules inside compact, linear extrusions that give the lamp a triangular shape which is reflected all throughout its design. The

main section, the pole and the stands share this shape, creating a cohesive and aesthetically balanced structure. Emi is mainly made from metal: the base of the lamp is cast iron. Imperfections present on the surface of the base are the result of a manual production process that makes each product unique. The pole and main body are aluminium. The upper and lower sections are made with polymers. Considerable effort has been made to minimise the surfaces and thicknesses all throughout the collection in order to optimise the use of materials. 

The floor version seems to float in the air, disencumbered by a stem that connects to the base. The two-way lighting offered by this model is highly adapted to contemporary life: the upper light is powerful enough to illuminate the entire space without dazzling, thanks to a specific beam conformation. The lower light is soft and subdued, perfect for use with other sources such as a television or appliance.
