AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
De Flos' 'KTribe S3' pendant lamp is a distinctive design in which classic elegance and contemporary technology enhance each other.
Designed by Philippe Starck, this fixture embodies his signature style: familiar and innovative at the same time, with a playful reference to traditional lamp shapes, translated into a modern context.
The design is characterized by the transparent outer shell, within which a refined internal diffuser is placed.
This layered structure creates a special lighting effect: functional and directed downward, while the ambient light is softly filtered through the hood.
The S3 variant, with its generous size, makes the KTribe ideally suited as an eye-catcher above dining tables, conference tables, or in spacious living and hospitality environments.
The combination of industrial precision, high-quality materials, and subtle reflections gives the lamp a luxurious, almost graphic appearance.
During the day, the KTribe appears as a bright and architectural object; in the evening, a warm, defined light composition emerges that effortlessly combines atmosphere and functionality.
With its timeless form and thoughtful light distribution, the Flos KTribe S3 seamlessly integrates into modern, minimalist, and eclectic interiors.
It is not a nostalgic reinterpretation, but a confident design statement where technology, comfort, and aesthetics come together.
