In Japanese tradition, 'Kodama 木魂' represents the essence of the tree. Vertical slats form the light body; between them, the light flows — never quite tangible — soft yet present, gentle yet directional, it flows along the slats finished in fine oak, thereby creating a lively, warm aura. In quiet presence, this forms a warm centre within the room. What moves us is not just the light itself — but the essence that reveals itself within it.
DEEPER MEANING
In its very nature, the tree reaches towards the light, towards its origin in Kosmos, and yet it is firmly rooted. Connected to our Earth and reaching towards the light, it symbolises the connection between the microcosm and the macrocosm.
The essence of the tree conveys serenity and tranquillity. Yet it is full of vitality; it is a sentient being. It offers protection and a sense of security, and grows steadily through time and space.
AREAS OF APPLICATION
The Kodama blends harmoniously and stylishly into many interiors. Thanks to its minimalist, clean lines, it can be combined with a wide range of interior design styles. It adds that certain something to a room and, with its organic warmth, exudes a fascinating presence and aura.
LIGHT EFFECTS
Thanks to the internal diffuser within the luminaire, the light flows softly and evenly along the slats, causing the entire body to glow organically. The deep slats guide the light so elegantly that a sense of understatement is maintained regardless of the light intensity. The Kodama is therefore ideally suited to areas where gentle and atmospheric lighting is desired.
RECOMMENDATIONS
The natural glow of the Kodama is shown to its best advantage with a light source that has a high colour rendering index (RA value) of ≥ 90. The intensity of the light can be freely adjusted depending on the luminaire’s position and intended use. With a ‘dim-to-warm’ bulb, the Kodama offers you a particularly versatile luminaire that allows you to create just the right atmosphere at any time.
