A line of light and a thin sheet of metal: that is the whole of Lámina, and it is enough. Antoni Arola's linear pendant bends a single plate over an LED line to bounce light softly where it is needed.
The Design Story
Antoni Arola designed the Lámina system in 2018 to champion reflected light through forms that are simple and self-evident. Instead of hiding the source inside a volume, he sets a strip of LED light beneath a thin, curved sheet that redirects and softens it. The 165 is the long linear format, measuring 179.8 cm (70.8 in) end to end. Its shade is white grey metal with a glossy outer face, carried on a matte black structure. The family sets out to strike a balance between poetry and reason.
The Lámina family it belongs to has been honored with the iF Gold Award 2021 and the Delta de Plata, ADI-FAD Delta Awards 2020 (Lighting).
About the Designer
Barcelona designer Antoni Arola treats light as his raw material. Winner of Spain’s National Design Prize in 2003, he has created some of Santa & Cole’s most recognisable families, from the porcelain Cirio to Lámina, Nimba, Moaré and the Shiro lanterns.

Made for Real Life
Because the light reflects off the sheet before reaching you, it reads calm and even, with very little glare across a long table. There is no bulb to replace. A quick dusting of the top of the shade keeps the gloss bright. Dust the shade and frame with a soft dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners on the glossy finish.

Where It Shines
It is made for a long dining table, a kitchen island or a shared work desk. The thin line works well under exposed beams or in rooms with strong architecture.
Who This Is Not For
It is long, so it needs a table or island of similar length. Dimming requires a compatible external dimmer, and installation should be done by an electrician.
