It is an original vision of the traditional chandelier with arms, in which technological innovation, research on materials and new solutions for electrical conduction are completely hidden from view. J-us reinterprets this concept in a contemporary way, while avoiding a futuristic image. The central structure is a cylinder with a diameter of 28 mm, which acts as a novel electrified track to accommodate the arms of the chandelier, assembled in a vast range of configurations.
The arms are made in a layered material usually utilized to produce electrical circuits, allowing the current to flow in a practical and functional way. The built-in LEDs offer warm, enveloping glow, suggesting the memory of candlelight. The structure is in aluminium the arms in copper and fiberglass, while the diffusers are in technopolymer.
