Designed by Marcel WandersRead Bio
The Skynest Motion Pendant showcases an airy dome crafted out of lit and unlit curved rods wrapped in thin woven fabric mesh. Each luminous rod is powered by micro-connectors at the top and covered with two-toned mesh, a colored outer side and white inner side for optimal light emission from the LED module. A built-in balancing system at the top of the dome ensures fixture stability, while an aluminum ring at the rim provides structural integrity.
The visually striking design resembles a floor lamp, but is instead suspended from the ceiling by a discreet cable. The plug-in power cord runs from the dome up and over a long horizontal arm, and is anchored on the floor by a small base. Hanging height can be adjusted by adjusting the ceiling cable length during installation, and by pulling more or less cord through the base.
The fabric mesh on the dome is made of recycled and recyclable fabric produced from polyester, making this pendant an environmentally friendly option. It is assembled without any glue, allowing it to be fully separated for recycling in the future. The Skynest C is a beautiful choice for those seeking a sustainable, innovative lighting solution.

Known by the New York Times as the “Lady Gaga” of design, Marcel Wanders is nothing short of exceptional. Netherlands native, Wanders graduated from Hogeschool voor Kunsten in 1988 at the top of his class. It didn’t take him long to gain recognition once he opened his own studio (1996) and released his iconic Knotted Chair produced by Droog.
In 2001, he co-founded the highly praised design label, Moooi, of which he is the art director. Wanders continues to thrill the design world with his countless product and interior projects, many of which have been featured in acclaimed exhibits such as the Museum of Modern Art in New York and San Francisco, London’s Victoria & Albert, Amserdam’s Stedelijk, and many more. Wanders has also been featured in a number of popular magazines – Elle, Esquire, Blueprint, Nylon, Design Report, to name a few.
His work gives new life to industrial design by adding romance and whimsy from different historical ages. He consistently entertains, surprises, and enlivens our spirits with his ever evolving creativity and cleverness. While Marcel Wanders is the definition of success, he has never forgotten his mission, which is to “create an environment of love, love with passion and make our most exciting dreams come true.”
