The latest colour for Melt is black<br />
smoke. Coated with a layer of<br />
translucent pigment, this unique<br />
light is transformed into an<br />
even more magical object as we<br />
experiment with the boundaries<br />
of luminosity, semi transparence<br />
and reflectivity.<br />
THE NEW,<br />
THE SILVER,<br />
THE BLACK<br />
AND THE BLUE<br />
Fetishistic glossy Black is a current<br />
favourite. Engineered in our German<br />
factories, this lustrous black lacquer<br />
has been popular on traditional<br />
Japanese lacquer furniture or in<br />
Bauhaus interiors. We have used it to<br />
transform our Copper pendants and<br />
Bell table light.<br />

Space-age and luminous,<br />
Silver is the reflective<br />
finish taking us boldly into<br />
the near future of interior<br />
decoration. This season<br />
we launch Bell table light,<br />
supersized, sleek, silver<br />
and perfectly reflective,<br />
and we update Scoop<br />
chair – high and low – with<br />
high-shine silver legs. We<br />
also bring back Top, a<br />
series of ethereal satellites<br />
that filter a warm light<br />
through pierced sheets of<br />
stainless steel.<br />

Electric Blue is our latest and most visible metallic yet.<br />
Resurfaced with the latest techniques in metal finishing,<br />
the hard wearing layer of blue on the Bell table light<br />
is created though the futuristic technique of Physical<br />
Vapour Deposition.<br />
We have also stripped our Copper shade and dipped<br />
them in vibrant blue glaze with extraordinary effect.<br />
Transformed into unapologetic orbs of pure colour with<br />
a touch of Jeff Koons showmanship, they hang overhead<br />
like weightless helium balloons.<br />

CUT GOLD<br />
Futuristic and faceted, Cut is an exercise<br />
in optics. Its space-age mirror finish when<br />
off transforms to reveal a translucent<br />
kaleidoscopic gem when switched on.<br />
Hypnotising reflections of the luminous<br />
orb repeat infinitely within the diamond<br />
cut, vacuum metallised interior. Produced<br />
in chrome and a new gold finish, Short and<br />

UPHOLSTERY<br />
In <strong>2018</strong> we launch a full spectrum of fabric<br />
and leg options for our upholstery. With<br />
five leg finishes – natural and black oak<br />
alongside copper, brass and silver, and a<br />
diverse range of textile choices – including<br />
HOT, a lightweight breathable fabric<br />
woven by Kvadrat, Wingback and Scoop<br />
are now truly customizable.<br />
SCOOP,<br />
RE-DESIGNED<br />
In the run up to its 10th anniversary we re-launch Scoop<br />
with a fresh reduced silhouette designed to maximise<br />
comfort and visual impact. Originally developed for<br />
the Royal Academy of Art Restaurant in London, the<br />
brief was for a chair that was generously proportioned,<br />
comfortable and fully upholstered. The result was a<br />
rounded soft shell inspired by motor racing ‘tub’ seats.<br />
Scoop is now re-engineered from new foam molded<br />
curves, expertly specified to satisfyingly cradle the<br />
contours of the body.
WET<br />
The bathroom is now transformed into a<br />
meditative pleasure space where lighting<br />
must perform exceptionally well in the face of<br />
steamy hot conditions.<br />
After years of experimenting we have cracked<br />
it, an alternative to the characterless fixtures<br />
that adorn many a tiled wall.<br />
Striking the right balance between decoration<br />
and functionality, we have expertly altered our<br />
surface lights to excel in environments both<br />
damp and dry. Spot, Stone and Plane can now<br />
safely illuminate the damp walls of kitchens<br />
and bathrooms.<br />
