Inspired by Clouds: Undulus by Scott Jarvie

Scott Jarvie is undoubtedly a designer with his head in the clouds. His Undulus modular lighting system takes its cue from the sweeping undulations of cloud formations. And just like clouds, sometimes there are only a few and other times there are many: Undulus is a single unit that can be paired with other pieces to create a broad spectrum of linear and geometric arrangements.

Undulus provides both directional and diffused light using fluorescent tube bulbs. Low-cost, energy-efficient, and long-lasting, fluorescents have their advantages. Within the modules of Undulus, these bulbs create nebulous glowing forms. Reminiscent of clouds, as well as waves and orchids, Undulus offers a sophisticated and sinuous silhouette.

Available as a horizontal or vertical pendant, wall, or floor lamp, Undulus changes its identity depending on its position. Hanging vertically from the ceiling, Undulus is a futuristic stalactite. The floor model resembles a torpedo. And the horizontal pendants lined up in a trio look like zeppelins.
