Introduction
The Astro chandelier was the centerpiece of Alessandro Mendini's pavilion during the 2010 Design Olympics. Its extravagant design, characterized by unique and sinuous shapes, imparted the pavilion with Mendini's signature flamboyant and eccentric style. With its 11,000 RGB LEDs, the chandelier produces light waves that reflect on the raised surfaces, creating suggestive color changes and an exotic atmosphere.

Description
This large chandelier is based on the rotation of two horizontal squares, the large top and small bottom ones, around a vertical axis. The four oblique surfaces obtained give birth to a dynamic volume. LED strips cover these surfaces, making them glimmer and glow. The rotation of the lamp expresses and represents the rotation of a celestial body in the universe. Indeed, this chandelier is meant to be a technological and poetic star in outer space. Its movement in the cosmos, along with the oscillation of its light and its colors, is an expression of positive energy that enters into contact with everyone who sees this wonder-lamp.
