CAI Lighting creates a mural with light!!!!!!

Lighting, as an art form, continues to fascinate me .... and while I was in Beirut, I was particularly taken by this series of 5 contemporary sconces. They line the wall of a double height staircase atrium in a stunning house owned by a Lebanese art collector. In addition to the sculptural design of each individual fixture ..... created by CAI Lighting, a trio of Beirut-based designers Christophe Hascoët, Annabel Karim Kassas & Isabel Rolland ..... an additional artistic element appears when they are lit. The scones, Splashing Drop, create a dramatic interplay of light and dark wrapping around the atrium ..... the resulting middle eastern influenced pattern becomes a mural or wallpaper. When standing in the room-like atrium, surrounded by the mesmerizing graphics, in combination with the height of the space, there is a peaceful and spiritual sensation.
