cloud mast | floor supported luminaire
cloud mast is a floor-supported luminaire. The 12′ (3.7 meter) tall vertical mast is crowned by a boom that holds a cloud mobile in shifting balance with a large fishing weight, an elegant alternative to wiring the mobiles to a ceiling. As air currents shift, the clouds rise and fall like ships floating on gentle seas. The weight responds to each change, locked in a perpetual search for equilibrium. This natural rhythm creates an enthralling visual and the comforting sense of lounging under a tree.
With no visible hot spots, each cloud transmits a gentle light in all directions. The horizontal boom can rotate 360 degrees around the mast, allowing light to be repositioned over another area with ease. As a floor-supported luminary, cloud mast is ideal for temporary installations or within spaces where electrical wiring might disrupt the ceiling.

90+ CRI
Color Rendering Index (CRI) measures the ability of a human-made light source to reproduce the colours of the object it illuminates accurately. With a maximum score of 100, CRI values that are 90 and above are considered excellent, while scores below 80 are generally considered poor. CRI is measured in relation to the colour temperature of the light source and its equivalent daylight spectrum. All molo lighting, including the cloud softlight collection, is made with 90+ CRI LEDs.
counterweight
the spherical weight is visually captivating, displaying a simple purity of form. Originally used for fishing, the nickel-plated lead weight is a small token of the Pacific Northwest.
