Crown Plana Mega Chandelier

The Crown Plana Mega Chandelier was created by German designers Marcus Jehs and Jürgen Laub for the Italian design company Nemo.

Federico Palazzari, the founder of Nemo, attributes the brand's success to its eclecticism -- and this eclecticism, in turn, to having a 'dynamic and productive force behind us'. Jehs and Laub, the design technicians with a love of Bauhaus, add an extra dimension to that Italian design philosophy. Here, lovers of their trademark style -- clean-lined, modular, aesthetically satisfying -- will see it at developed on a truly eye-opening scale.

At 113cm wide and 172cm long, and structured in light aluminium, the Crown Plana Mega Chandelier shows the duo of Jehs and Laub developing the perfectionism of their designs while revelling in the possibilities of scale. Beautifully symmetrical in its branched, honeycomb pattern, this chandelier works well as a centrepiece on a domestic scale. However, it could also be hung in a series to create a uniquely impressive overhead space. The chandelier is lit by 12 halogen bulbs and can be dimmed to create exactly the effect you wish.
