There is something special about these Japanese shrines: their structure seems very simple, but in reality it conceals great complexity.\u201d<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><p>The same principle defines the <a href=\"https:\/\/vibia.com\/en\/int\/collections\/hanging-lamps-asia-hanging\">Asia<\/a> collection. The simplicity of its shade and base conceals a highly developed technical system, in which the light source, structure and rotation mechanism have been meticulously designed for intuitive use. Indeed, the shade can rotate through 360 degrees without the cables interfering with its movement.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-6{margin-top:0px!important; margin-right:0px!important;margin-bottom:20px!important;margin-left:0px!important;}}@media only screen and (max-width:768px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-6{margin-top:0px!important; margin-right:0px!important;margin-bottom:20px!important; margin-left:0px!important;}}<\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-6 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-center fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two big-text\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:20px;margin-left:0px;\"><h2 class=\"title-heading-center fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:35;line-height:1.3;\">\u201cThat simplicity is not easy to achieve. A great deal of careful engineering goes into making everything appear effortless. It is something I value highly, and a philosophy we share with Vibia.\u201d<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6\"><p>The collection is built around layers of materials, with glass playing a particularly prominent role. An inner cylinder of transparent glass houses the light source. Initially made from malleable borosilicate glass, it was subsequently refined using quartz for its greater transparency and quality.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-7{margin-top:0px!important; margin-right:0px!important;margin-bottom:20px!important;margin-left:0px!important;}}@media only screen and (max-width:768px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-7{margin-top:0px!important; margin-right:0px!important;margin-bottom:20px!important; margin-left:0px!important;}}<\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-7 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-center fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two big-text\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:20px;margin-left:0px;\"><h2 class=\"title-heading-center fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:35;line-height:1.3;\">\u201cAt first, plastic seemed as though it might make sense because of its translucency, lightness and ease of use. But we decided to opt for a noble material and incorporate glass, both in the light source and in the shade itself.\u201d<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-7\"><p>The lacquered glass diffuser gently filters the light, creating warm, serene illumination. Light appears to expand from the inside out, producing a dual lighting effect that combines diffused and directional light.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-8{margin-top:0px!important; margin-right:0px!important;margin-bottom:20px!important;margin-left:0px!important;}}@media only screen and (max-width:768px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-8{margin-top:0px!important; margin-right:0px!important;margin-bottom:20px!important; margin-left:0px!important;}}<\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-8 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-center fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two big-text\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:20px;margin-left:0px;\"><h2 class=\"title-heading-center fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:35;line-height:1.3;\">\u201cIt was a challenge. It looks simple, but it wasn\u2019t. Finding the right tone, colour and light took a great deal of effort. But when you see the quality of the material, you realise it could not have been done any other way.\u201d<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-8\"><p>The collection was conceived to adapt naturally to different settings, offering a simple, effective solution for a range of everyday uses.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-9{margin-top:0px!important; margin-right:0px!important;margin-bottom:20px!important;margin-left:0px!important;}}@media only screen and (max-width:768px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-9{margin-top:0px!important; margin-right:0px!important;margin-bottom:20px!important; margin-left:0px!important;}}<\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-9 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-center fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two big-text\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:20px;margin-left:0px;\"><h2 class=\"title-heading-center fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:35;line-height:1.3;\">\u201cThere is direct downward light, useful for working or eating, and diffused light that provides ambient illumination without exposing the light source. This combination always works.\u201d<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-9\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/vibia.com\/en\/int\/collections\/hanging-lamps-asia-hanging\">Asia<\/a>\u2019s slender structure accentuates the sophistication of its materials and its visual lightness. Available in pendant, table and floor versions, the collection works both as an individual piece and in compositions. It allows suspended configurations that complement the surrounding architecture, or more precise points of light for intimate scenes.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-10{margin-top:0px!important; margin-right:0px!important;margin-bottom:20px!important;margin-left:0px!important;}}@media only screen and (max-width:768px) {.fusion-title.fusion-title-10{margin-top:0px!important; margin-right:0px!important;margin-bottom:20px!important; margin-left:0px!important;}}<\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-10 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-center fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two big-text\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:20px;margin-left:0px;\"><h2 class=\"title-heading-center fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:35;line-height:1.3;\">\u201cIt works very well in groups.
