Manufacturer: Flos | Designer: Philippe Starck, 2007

The KTribe W is a wall-mounted fitting that brings Starck's instinct for drama to a domestic scale. A polished, chrome-plated Zamak rose anchors a polished aluminium arm; the diffuser hangs from it with quiet presence. The inner diffuser is opal polycarbonate, while the outer shade — in transparent or fumèe PMMA, or vacuum-aluminised silver or bronze — shifts the character of the light depending on the finish chosen. A four-level dimmer switch positioned near the diffuser gives precise control without a separate wall dimmer.
