iO Horus by Maker Design Studio

$3,849.00$4,385.00

New to the iO light range, the iO Horus is inspired by the Egyptian God, The Eye of Horus symbolises Protection, Healing and Restoration. Created by Mat MacMillan of Maker Design Studio (NZ)

Added to the iO Light range in April 2022, the iO Horus is inspired by the Egyptian falcon-God who’s eye was damaged in a feud. The Eye of Horus is a well-known symbol representing Protection, Healing and Restoration.

Formed to suggest an eye when viewed from above / below, the ends of the iO Horus shade do not actually meet. The Shoji-paper diffuser wraps instead around a half tube of clear polycarbonate, allowing the light to flow with no shadow cast. At the same time the fin walls extend beyond the diffuser adding visual interest and giving an eye-like feel. The two sides are slightly offset, which adds a dynamic asymmetry to the design.

Every iO shade is hand made, retaining an organic quality and throwing a warm soft light.  Constructed from strips of high grade NZ pine plywood, with Japanese Shoji paper diffuser lining inside, the iO Horus comes in one length only (1600mm), with a choice of 300mm or 400mm high fins. For an added dimension there is also the option of having the outer edge of the fins painted black.

  • 1600mm long by 300mm high
  • 1600mm Long x 400mm high
  • The iO Horus shade requires three suspension sets – Sold Separately

Winner of an Australian Good Design Award – 2022
