Fluorescent bulbs were, until recently, unable to dim in the same fashion as incandescent. Enter the Illuminair with it’s mechanical dimming. Simply slide the top “shade” tube up and down to expose more or less of the thin T5 bulb inside. All the way up lets light fill the space while all the way down nearly completely darkens the lamp.
Extreme vertical and thin visual element creates a dramatic effect and highlights the lamps simplicity allowing it to sit quietly until the light brings it to life.
Illuminair won Interior Design Magazine’s “Future Furniture” competition and was presented, along with the other winners, at NeoCon in Chicago.
