Design by Arturo Alvarez, 2010.

Metrica is pure architecture in form and application, creating illuminated partitions or used individually as a unique piece. A straightforward and simple form, which both warm and kind to the sense.

Metrica is made of an innovative material, created by a proprietary process of infusing silicone with color and then spraying the pigmented silicone over a stainless steel mesh. The mesh is then wrapped around a transluscent white acrylic box which provides Metrica's form and conceals the electrical hardware.

Metrica is crafted from a durable, easy-to-clean material that, when illuminated, casts shadows of youthful wonder. Additional colors can be obtained by using colored gels over the bulbs. Functional and extraordinary while still maintaining the hallmarks of design and art, Metrica is an original visual and kinesthetic experience.
