The Fluidity of Light

A belt in which you place all kinds of luminaires

Equal parts easy and avant-garde, Plusminus harnesses the design of a belt in a groundbreaking lighting concept that merges materiality and light. Featuring a textural, fabric belt that conducts electricity, it enables light to flow through space. Plusminus provides professionals a powerful toolkit for creating personalised lighting effects and unique atmospheres with different luminaires.The toolkits feature multiple elements—component pieces, colours, textures—that can be freely adapted and combined to suit the characteristics and constraints of specific spaces. A powerful tool for unique creations, they present designers and architects with infinite possibilities for integrating light in an interior
