Dicro is a decorative lamp, designed to create a unique and appealing atmosphere through the combination of light and the dichroic vinyl it features.
When it's turned on, it creates an explosion of colors and brings the space to life. When it's turned off, it becomes a mirror of colors.

Creating colors

The 5mm acrylic screens, covered with dichroic vinyl, saturate the space they're in with a variety of colors. Its dichroic vinyl shades create a play of lights and tones in the environment that change depending on how you look at it, making its use a unique experience.
Its bent metal base acts as a pedestal for the screens, turning Dicro into a light totem.
