Craftsmanship

Behind the deceptively simple curves lies real craftsmanship, using artfully formed aluminium to capture the smooth waves. The satin matte finish makes w171 Alma intriguing even in daylight, with its concentric circles of shadow and light. In 2024 we introduce an additional raw aluminiium finish.

Slim silhouette

With its slender proportions, w171 Alma takes up little visual space, making it an ideal lighting solution for areas with low ceilings.

Solitary– or a floating ceiling

Suspended from the ceiling, it performs beautifully as a solitary as well as in a group –even to create an entire floating ceiling of light. 

Track compatible

Compatible with all major light track systems.

Raw

w171 Alma is available in a raw finish, with no added coatings or protective treatments. This allows for resource-efficient production, easier recycling, and a graceful ageing process. From the start, its naturally textured surface has a rich, tactile depth, with any marks from the production process only adding to its character. Over time, stains, fingerprints, and oxidation will evolve into a beautiful, distinctive patina.
