Parallel Series

In designing the Parallel Series, we searched for a pairing of materials that would create a dynamic contrast while allowing for an elegant harmony. We decided to bring together the rich complementary duo of spun aluminum and hand blown glass.

A sphere is where most things start, as did we. This delicate globe is our take on the most universal form.   Half dark, half light, the color of the illuminated glass travels inside of the aluminum top filling it with a glowing timelessness.

When paired with a long incandescent bulb, this tall cylinder creates a beautiful and calming light. Its blown glass shade radiates color by just having the tip of the bulb exposed through the metal top. Whether placed in a residential or commercial application, these simple and elegant cylinders work great grouped together.

With tight curves and clean lines, this modern canister form is both classic yet contemporary. While designing this light we took inspiration from hanging oil lanterns that used to adorn homes of a prior generation. With its crisp lines and sensuous color it illuminates spaces that are traditional or contemporary, giving a feeling of both the past and present alike.

The Carina light has a wide, curved shape comprised of handblown glass and formed aluminum. Its compact design works perfectly in multiples and maintains a strength on its own.

Large voluminous curves make up the Parallel Orb's stunning shape.  It is the largest pendant in the collection, making it a great centerpiece light or when used in multiples to create dramatic scale.  It features a three bulb cluster branching out from the metal top and illuminating the handblown glass below.  Each piece is made with care in our Minneapolis studio.
