Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) is an industrial process that deposits an ultra-thin metallic coating onto a surface at the molecular level. On glass, it creates iridescent, color-shifting effects that change with viewing angle and light conditions, without adding significant thickness or weight.

Yes. Each diffuser is hand-blown by craftspeople working in the Murano tradition, which means every piece carries subtle variations in form and surface. No two are identical, and those differences are considered part of the work's character.

Bjarke Ingels Group, known as BIG, is a Copenhagen and New York-based architecture and design practice founded by Bjarke Ingels. The studio is known for work that blends pragmatic function with formal invention, spanning architecture, urban planning, and product design.

The PVD-coated glass surface responds to both the internal light source and the surrounding ambient light, producing shifts in color, reflectivity, and depth throughout the day. The pendant reads as a different object under warm incandescent tones than under natural daylight.

Its scale and optical complexity make it well suited to residential dining spaces, double-height entries, and hospitality interiors where a single sculptural element anchors the room. Architects and designers often specify it as a focal piece rather than part of a broader lighting system.
