Flama Restaurant sets the scene with lighting distinguished by its warmth and variety.

Flama means cooking with fire, over embers. The technique takes us back a million years, when Homo erectus tribes discovered that fresh ingredients and fire could produce a distinctive aroma and yield juicy, flavorful, appetizing food. Technique, experience, and quality ingredients come together in one of the world’s most highly regarded culinary traditions.

Light defines space. It can expand or diminish it, reveal or conceal it, give it structure and refinement. Any light fixture can serve this purpose, but few do so masterfully. This pursuit of excellence has long defined technical lighting, which now finds a new identity at the intersection of function and decoration.

Fit 48V’s minimalist aesthetic and functionality bring every detail of the restaurant into focus. Its track system extends across several areas, ensuring complete illumination throughout the space.

Drawing inspiration from the imperfect materials of our earliest origins and the colors of the earth, the design creates a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere with the familiar warmth of home.

With its elegant form, Top creates a calm atmosphere through discreet yet consistent beams of light.

Flama finds its expression in this fertile meeting of creativity and reason, where technical and decorative lighting converge. Shaping light with care while simplifying the form that houses it requires an exploration of a product’s essence. There, in the purest geometric forms and the miniaturization of the luminaires, lies the true origin of the acclaimed effect.
