Design by Pablo Pardo, 2003.

A hybrid lighting innovation that can be both a room divider and lamp, Ventana is a lamp and curtain that can be rolled down when you need privacy and rolled up and out of the way to create open space. The back to back (vinyl coated mesh) fabric can be adjusted to any length up to 9 feet depending on your preference. The lamp also features an adjustable light tube that can be dialed up for ambient lighting or downward for focused spotlighting. The lamp is available in both 15 and 30 inch widths by 9 feet long.
