The
Flos String Light Cone LED pendant lamp transforms suspension into an architectural gesture, using an intentionally visible cable to draw a graphic path through the room. Within the contemporary lighting language of
Flos, the compact conical aluminium body becomes only one part of a broader spatial composition in which distance, direction and tension are equally important. A soft-touch Black finish gives the
die-cast aluminium shade a tactile, understated presence, while the opal polycarbonate diffuser delivers direct light to the area below. Designed for indoor use, the
String Light Cone works naturally in dining rooms, lounges, gallery-like entrances and hospitality interiors where lighting can contribute to the architecture without relying on decorative volume.
A new spatial vocabulary within Flos Pendants
As part of the
Flos Pendants, String Light Cone offers unusual freedom when conventional ceiling points do not correspond with the desired position of the light. Reinforced with Kevlar, the suspension cable is available in 12 m and 22 m lengths, allowing designers to create extended trajectories across large rooms and to make the cable itself an intentional visual element. This makes the
String Light Cone long cable pendant particularly effective above dining tables, seating areas or circulation zones that require a more flexible relationship between architecture and illumination. The conical head remains visually compact, while the extended cable can establish rhythm, direction and a sense of movement across the ceiling and surrounding volume.
Michael Anastassiades and the precision of a line in space
Michael Anastassiades gives the
Flos String Light Cone its distinctive identity by treating the suspension system as part of the object rather than something to conceal. The long cable becomes a drawn line connecting architecture and light, while the restrained conical diffuser provides a clear visual endpoint. A floor switch incorporates a touch dimmer, allowing the LED output to be adjusted intuitively without compromising the purity of the installation. The
Flos LED source can be replaced by qualified personnel, supporting long-term professional maintenance. As a
suspended cable light, the design balances functional adaptability with disciplined geometry, making it equally suitable for refined residential projects, restaurants and hospitality interiors where a conventional pendant would offer less compositional freedom.
Graphic illumination in dialogue with Flos Ceiling lights
Used alongside
Flos Ceiling Lights, String Light Cone can contribute to a layered scheme in which fixed overhead illumination is complemented by a more expressive suspended element. The
Black soft-touch aluminium body creates a precise contrast against lighter architectural surfaces, while the
opal polycarbonate diffuser keeps the emitted light visually controlled. The
String Light Cone modern hanging light by
Michael Anastassiades x Flos can be positioned close to a table for a more intimate effect or integrated into larger spatial compositions where its 12 m or 22 m cable becomes a defining graphic feature. Whether specified individually or as part of a more complex arrangement, String Light Cone gives architects and interior designers a distinctive tool for shaping space through direct light, visible suspension and refined proportions, turning a functional connection into an essential part of the interior language.
