Ixa

Complete and transversal luminaire family

Ixa - design: Foster+Partners - is a complete and transversal family of luminaires created by combining a pivoting spherical head with rods and counterweights that allow light to be brought into the space and moved freely to define functional and dynamic lighting scenarios. The intelligent and scalable principle allows the Ixa family to evolve with new versions.

Its flattering spherical head is magnetically connected to the body. It thus invites interaction, can be rotated freely through 360° and directs the light precisely where it is needed. Its materials and production processes were selected according to criteria of the lowest environmental impact. Its flexible functionality, its elegant and minimalist design and not least the dynamics of its light make Ixa a symbol of sustainable design - modern and timeless at the same time.

Artemide and Foster+Partners share a sustainable project approach that permeates the development of the product at all stages and is an indispensable value of the project.
