The collaboration between Note Design Studio and Vibia brought the MUSA collection and the Chromatica color palette to life. Musa Lighting Collection is the result of an intensive manual research phase, using paper models that influenced its organic expression. A delicate and elegant design where a symbiotic interaction is established between the small hand-blown opal glass sphere and the dish that holds and reflects it. Its ability to work anywhere underscores its poetic physical form. A design that appeals to the touch, to the day-to-day, and the familiar.
Innovative designers with an impressive track record seem to have a bright future.
