Louis Poulsen’s Enigma 825 uses thin aluminum wires to hold its concentric acrylic shades level. The shades obscure the light source—which can be a ceramic metal halide or tubular halogen lamp—from any angle and emits an evenly distributed downlight. Weighing 16 lbs., Enigma 825 is 61″ tall with a maximum diameter of 32.5″ and hangs 118.1″. Smaller versions of the fixture are available in the Enigma series. • louispoulsen.com
