Sebastian Herkner explores the boundaries of the linear light with the new Kontur collection for Vibia

Designed by Sebastian Herkner, Vibia’s new Kontur collection is defined by its sleek black metal frame. An elegant stage setting for the exploration of linear light, the frame is imbedded with LEDs and pairs with different diffusers and reflectors to create a range of lighting atmospheres.

The frame houses either a handblown opaline glass diffuser or a rounded metal reflector, the pure volumes producing a delicate balance within the graphic geometric architecture. With the cylindrical glass diffuser, Kontur generates a warm, 360-degree glow as if from a fire. When combined with the reflector’s curved metal sheet, it lends the ambient look of raining light.
