Machine of Light
Made by Catellani & Smith
Designed by Enzo Catellani
Macchina della Luce di Catellani & Smith è una lampada a sospensione scultorea della collezione Luci d'Oro, ispirata alla riflessione di Enzo Catellani sulla luce dorata del sole e del fuoco. Costruita intorno al concetto di rifrazione, il design stratifica dischi diffusori rivestiti in foglia color oro, rame o argento per creare una composizione calda e luminosa con una presenza architettonica drammatica.
Disponibile in molteplici configurazioni, Macchina della Luce presenta dischi diffusori rivestiti in foglia, aste in ottone o alluminio e una base in nichel, con composizioni di dischi che vanno da due a cinque elementi a seconda del modello. La sua calda luce LED da 2700K offre potenze da 1.440 a 7.200 lumen, con dimmerazione Triac e opzioni DALI o 1-10V disponibili su richiesta. Raffinata, radiosa e altamente espressiva, porta un'illuminazione scultorea italiana in sale da pranzo, ingressi, vani scala e grandi interni di hotel.

Frequently Asked Questions
What leaf colorways are available for Macchina della Luce?
The diffuser discs are available lined in gold, copper, or silver-colored leaf. Each finish produces a meaningfully different quality of light: gold is the warmest and most reflective, copper yields a softer amber tone, and silver introduces a cooler, more diffuse glow.
How many disc configurations does Macchina della Luce come in?
The pendant is available in configurations of two to five diffuser discs depending on the model, with each arrangement creating a distinct compositional silhouette and a corresponding variation in total lumen output, from 1,440 up to 7,200 lumens.
Is Macchina della Luce dimmable?
Yes. Triac dimming is standard across the range. DALI and 1-10V dimming protocols are available on request, which makes the fixture compatible with sophisticated architectural lighting control systems.
Where is Catellani & Smith lighting manufactured?
Catellani & Smith produces all of its lighting by hand at its atelier in Bergamo, Italy. The studio was founded by Enzo Catellani in 1989, and handcraft remains central to every piece in the collection.
What ceiling height is recommended for Macchina della Luce?
Given the pendant's sculptural scale and the visual weight of multi-disc configurations, it reads best in spaces with generous ceiling heights, generally 10 feet or above. Larger five-disc compositions are particularly suited to double-height or monumental interiors.
