A collection that explores balance

A stem, and on top, or below, as if in a balancing act, a glass sphere projects outwards in a delicate equilibrium at the end of a slanting baton. Apparently unstable, the opalescent form looks as though it might slip away as if it were the apparatus of a juggler’s act in which sphere and baton are magically balanced.

Inspired by a video of a contact juggler, Cypriot designer Michael Anastassiades became enthralled by the skill of keeping the spheres perched still on the body, and so the IC Lights Collection was born in 2014.

"I came across an online video clip of a contact juggler. He was spinning a set of spheres, moving them around on his arms and edge of his fingers. And as I got mesmerized by the magic of his skill, suddenly the spheres look perfectly still. I wanted to capture that exact moment. This was my starting point."

MICHAEL ANASTASSIADES

From a single juggler’s clip, IC Lights has branched out into an expansive collection over the years. Across different sizes, finishes and materials, each interpretation retains the defining gesture of the original design: a glass sphere held in perfect balance.

Originally conceived for interiors, IC has since extended its distinctive design language to outdoor spaces, with materials and finishes developed for exterior environments while preserving the character of the original design. From indoors to outdoors, the sphere keeps its balance.

Today, IC remains one of Anastassiades’ most recognizable designs, evolving over time while preserving the distinctive identity of the original concept.
