After meeting at the Salone del Mobile in Milan, Aptum lighting and Studio Vocum acknowledge an affinity of expression that blossoms into a collaboration today. A high-fidelity ceramic sound sculpture that fuses sound, color and light together to awaken our senses.

Radiation of sound, radiation of light

"Vocum radiant" is a ceramic high-fidelity sound sculpture based on synesthetic colour combinations. The shapes mimic the spherical propagation of sound in air and the musical projection of brass instruments, providing a unique listening experience.
This year, a collaboration with Aptum Lighting was formed to include the element of light as an additional visual and sensory material.
In the exhibition space you will be able to enjoy this cooperation, along with a custom multichannel designs that are matched to the architecture and lighting conditions of the installation environment.
