Arkoslight introduces Warp by Geckeler Michels


16th May 2025

(Spain) – Spanish lighting brand expands into the decorative lighting segment with the launch of Warp – a suspension luminaire developed in collaboration with Berlin-based design studio Geckeler Michels.

Defined by its purity of form and material lightness, Warp explores the interplay between tension, translucency, and gravity. The fixture starts from a simple circular base, and the textile shade is naturally pulled downward, forming an elegant, flowing silhouette. This organic transformation is central to the design concept: the lamp exists in its final form only once gravity is allowed to shape it.

Warp’s textile diffuser is both elastic and translucent, offering a filtered, ambient light effect while maintaining a visually lightweight profile. The use of a flat, integrated LED light source avoids the need for a visible bulb, allowing the continuous fabric surface to remain uninterrupted. The luminaire is available in two sizes and a single black colourway, and it ships flat, emphasising ease of transport and straightforward assembly.

The name “Warp” draws inspiration from astrophysics, referencing the distortion of space-time described in Einstein’s theory of relativity. The design metaphorically reflects the way gravity influences both space and form, an idea that plays out literally in the lamp’s suspended structure.

Designer Geckeler Michels explains,“Warp explores fluidity and transparency of the textile in a simple gesture. A clear and elegant manner, which highlights the behaviour of the material with light.”
