String Light Cone Pendant by Flos was designed by Michael Anastassiades and reduces the pendant lighting typology to its most essential components: a visible, honestly exposed rubber-coated flex cable and a compact geometric diffuser, strung diagonally through space rather than hung vertically from a single ceiling point. The Cone diffuser adds a small, precisely resolved conical shade to the exposed cable and bulb, directing light with a degree of control while retaining the collection's celebrated visual lightness and structural honesty. Its consistent design language with the Sphere variant also allows both diffuser types to be combined within the same installation.
The String Light Cone's diagonal cable routing allows the fixture to be strung between two fixed points — wall to ceiling, or across a room — creating a genuinely sculptural composition from the cable's own catenary curve as much as from the light source itself. This flexibility makes it effective in residential living rooms, staircases and any application where a conventional vertically hung pendant would feel visually predictable, and its compact scale allows multiple String Light fixtures to be combined into a more elaborate constellation composition. Its lightweight cable system also simplifies installation across ceiling and wall fixing points of varying structural condition.
Architects and interior designers specifying String Light Cone for residential and hospitality environments will find the DWG drawing and CAD block essential for cable routing and fixing-point coordination. The 3D model supports BIM-accurate spatial documentation. A distinctive specification for any project requiring genuinely minimal, diagonally strung pendant lighting.
Available as a 2D DWG drawing and 3D model.
