Marcel Wanders Skygarden lamp is all in the B-Side; in fact only when you look into the internal surface of the sleek hemispherical lampshade you discover its hidden nature.
Inspired by a decorated antique plaster ceiling Wanders had in his house, in moments of relax it gave him such a pleasant sight that he decided to share it with the rest of the world, well at least with those willing to spend 1500 euro, in the form of a pendant lamp for Flos.
The lamp's chalk body has a series of embossed flower motifs in the internal surface, which gives it a great personality and an intimate sense that is somehow very enjoyable.
The blown glass diffuser ends in a photo-etched steel disc decorated with arabesques and the outline of Wanders own portrait, a sort of signature that feels too much like an overstated celebration for his own ego.
