Umasi, light that moves through space.
A floor and suspension luminaire for diffuse indoor illumination, Umasi brings softness to the space as light passes through three paper-covered PETG shades, dissolving shadows and smoothing outlines. With a shade that travels along the wire from ceiling to floor, Umasi is designed to adapt to the architecture and create a quiet sense of warmth and familiarity.
