"Flexia is a play of perceptions between the visible material, color and the invisible, which becomes light".
Inspired by papyroflexia, the technique for bending papyrus, Flexia is reminiscent of the Japanese art of origami.
Flexia is the result of the combination of Artemide's lighting expertise and the experience in sustainable design of Mario Cucinella, whose work is constantly concerned with sustainability issues, conceived according to a holistic approach and applied at every level of design.
The meeting point here is a shared vision that aims to improve the quality of everyday life while respecting people and the environment The attention to detail, combined with the simplicity of the principles and attention to the well-being of those who really use the environment, becomes a feature strongly determined by the quality of light.
The area with the acoustic panel controls reverberation by absorbing the sound waves reflected in the room, while the patented Discovery technology, born from Ernesto Gismondi's research, creates a uniform and comfortable diffused light emission through the lighting quality of the transparent radiating surface.
Flexia's flexible blades, with a rotation mechanism from 0° to 15° or 30°, allow inclinations and positions that can be adjusted to interact with the environment. The shape, materials and density have been chosen to respond primarily to human speech frequencies. The result is an aesthetic based on parametric and functional intelligence.
Indeed, the patented Discovery technology applied here produces a diffuse, uniform and comfortable emission in any installation position, also in compliance with UGR standards for use in work environments. It is a technical performance that expresses itself through the emotion of perception and the magic of transparency. It tells the story of Artemide's ability to look beyond traditional schemes to interpret technology for the benefit of human well-being.
Flexia expands into visual space in a play of optical perceptions: When the lamp is switched off, it is disembodied and invisible, while when it is switched on, it becomes material and transforms into a body of light.
Flexia is proof of how the sustainability of a building also comes from the elements present in the space. Flexia, in fact, offers a reduced energy impact, high efficiency, flexibility in handling for a prudent use, thanks to the possibility of controlling the emission with the Artemide app, generating environmental quality and guiding the user towards an increasingly conscious use of light.
This goes hand in hand with a careful choice of materials; the sound-absorbing part in particular is made from recycled fibers: The outer fabric comes from 100% PET bottles, while the inner panel is made from waste material.
Flexia has been designed to improve the quality of environments and create an efficient combination for any lighting need; its versatile and lightweight design adapts to all situations where acoustic and visual well-being is required.
The combination of several modules allows the composition of lightscapes with balanced light and sound measurements.
