iO Horus

The latest of the iO range. In Egyptian mythology, Horus is a Falcon-God whose eye was damaged in a feud, the Eye of Horus is a well-known symbol representing protection, healing, and restoration – fitting themes for our time. The ends of the shade do not actually meet and the Shoji-paper diffuser wraps instead around a half tube of clear polycarbonate, allowing the light to flow with no shadow cast. At the same time, the fins extend beyond the diffuser adding visual interest and giving an eye-like appearance. You’ll notice that the two sides are slightly offset, which adds a dynamic asymmetry to the design.
iO lights bring a simple, calm beauty to any setting, emitting a warm glow while adding substance as a beautifully designed object. Made using premium NZ ply sourced from locally grown trees, iO is a thoroughly sustainable New Zealand product. iO is a product that is timeless – It’s apparently simple form and precise detailing obscuring the skill and challenges involved in its fabrication. Each one is created by hand using natural materials.
