Maru

Maru's hidden secret is the kaleidoscopic pattern of light it casts upwards. The torus form is inspired by diatoms, which are at the base of the entire oceanic food chain. The name Maru is found in both New Zealand Māori and Japanese languages, with references to the cycle of life.

Maru is a feature lighting sculpture powered by six internal Lumiled LED's, which project light upwards creating overlapping patterns. Maru can complement other light sources and equally provide a moody 'wow!' element, in a low-lit environment such as a bar, lounge, or restaurant.
