The Artemide El Porís Pendant Light is a pendant light designed by Herzog & De Meuron in 2023. In Artemide's words: “El Porís is a modern, light, rigorous chandelier, yet one that is also truly spectacular and sculptural. It is a large elementary, geometric structure that features light bulbs housed in traditional E26 sockets, leaving complete freedom of choice as to what sources to use. Two or three calendared steel tubes of decreasing diameter are united by four vertical mounts.” Choose model and the light source on this page.
