behive suspension lamp

The perfect blend of formal purity and technological research, Behive is a new lamp designed by Werner Aisslinger in his first collaboration with Foscarini. In Behive, light is the decorative element defining the body with an animating graphic outline that brings it to life. When it is switched off, Behive resembles a stylish modern sculpture, but when it is switched on, it produces a soft and enveloping light that is reflected onto the surface around and below.

The name "Behive" (a shortening of "beehive") describes the shape and horizontal striped pattern of the white diffuser and its emanating warm, soft light. Deceptively simple and regular in appearance, the white rings of Behive are the result of a highly complex collaborative engineering process and materials research for which Foscarini is so well known. Behive is a truly luminous sculpture, a perfect architecture of horizontal slits with a charming, poetic effect. It denotes a winning and recognizable personality, destined to become a classic. Also available in table version. 400" cord length available on request (please call the hive showroom to specify).
