Chris Mihalcea from Axis Lighting,a LED lighting manufacturer, presents Elle—a streamlined and concave lighting instrument that blends into the space.

The project has been awarded a 2021 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies for its architectural lighting.

As the feathered, esthetic glow plays off surfaces, luminaire and architecture work together and become the lighting system.

The noninvasive curved profile softens the surroundings and follows the contours of any space.

The luminaire’s sleek appearance is well suited to forming continuous runs throughout a space, whether it be a room, a floor, or as the lighting theme for an entire building.
