IO is a floor lamp that's different from all the others. The idea stemmed in 2014 from the concept of split personalities. The literal split personality of IO makes it unique in the world of lighting design. The lighting element is phisically detached from the base, floating on it. The two of them can't function without the other, though, thus the double nature of it. A complex mixture of magnetic levitation and wireless energy transfer makes this possible while maintaining the energy consumption low. IO reflects the possibility of a new meaning of lighting design and eases the understanding of something different, by showing its beauty.
