Briar

A lighting family defined by the curve of an arm and the way it holds the light.

A curve that holds the light

The defining gesture of Briar is the curvature of the arm: how it travels toward the globe, then turns to appear to grasp it. That relationship gives the fixture its character.

The linear pendant shows the idea most clearly. With a globe at either end, the sweep of the arm can be read as one continuous line. The metal and the light each have a distinct presence, brought together by the curve.

The gesture, up close

The transition matters as much as the silhouette. A curved shoulder leads into the long span of the pendant, then the arm turns toward the edge of the opal glass.

The arm has enough presence to read as a form in its own right. At the globe, it becomes a frame for the light. That visual grip is the detail carried across the family.

The Briar linear pendant’s curved arm appears to grasp the opal glass globe — At the end of the linear pendant, the metal curves toward the glass, creating a visual grip.

One gesture, different settings

I designed Briar for Kuzco Lighting as a family of four: a linear pendant, chandelier, wall sconce, and vanity light. The same curved arm takes on a different rhythm as it moves from a suspended fixture to the wall.

The family is offered in Brushed Gold, Black, and Teak finishes. The wall and vanity fixtures can be mounted horizontally or vertically, bringing the design into different rooms and arrangements.
