SkLO is pleased to introduce our new Multi-Pendant Canopy programs. These Multi-Pendant Canopy programs allow multiple individual pendants to be suspended from a single canopy. These simple programs allow for limitless customization and the creation of unique chandeliers, site-specific installations, and organic compositions using SkLO pendant designs.
Four different Multi-Pendant Canopy programs bring different of canopies and hardware designed to pair with specific pendant designs from our Light Collection, offering unique opportunities for customization.
Hook & Loop Multi-Pendant Canopy
Specifically designed to work with pendants from our Light Collection which are suspended on rigid brass tube stems, the Hook & Loop series offers 16 different canopies in 3 sizes which can combine individual pendants in groups ranging from 2 to 28. The circular canopies are available in pre-drilled patterns, and are designed to swag the pendants to locations independent of the canopies themselves using customized ceiling hardware and fabric-wrapped electrical cord which are all included with the canopy.

Hook & Clasp Multi-Pendant Canopy
The Hook & Clasp Multi-Pendant Canopy series are designed to work with our cord-suspended pendants such as the Drape Pendants and the Fold Pendants. The canopies available are the same as for the Hook & Loop Multi-Pendant series, but the custom ceiling hardware is different, tailored here for use with the fabric-wrapped electrical cord of the pendants. As in the Hook & Loop series, the circular canopies are available in pre-drilled patterns, and are designed to swag the pendants to locations independent of the canopies themselves, allowing for complete freedom of composition.

Round Multi-Pendant Canopy
The Round Multi-Pendant Canopy program is designed to enable multiple SkLO pendants to be suspended directly from a single round canopy. The round canopies are available in a range of 6 sizes for maximum flexibility. The number of individual pendants and their composition is entirely customizable - unlike the canopies of the Hook & Loop and Hook & Clasp programs, these canopies are not pre-drilled.

Custom chandelier made using a Round Multi-Pendant Canopy, the chandelier consists of a mix of 36 individual Float 12 Pendants, Float 18 Pendants and Float 24 Pendants, in a palette of white glass, dark oxidized brass hardware, and black fabric-wrapped cord.
Linear Multi-Pendant Canopy
The Linear Multi-Pendant Canopy program offers the same flexibility as the Round program, but with a different geometry. The Linear program is based on a 5"/127mm wide rectangular canopy, and offers 11 different lengths ranging from 24"/610mm to 192"/4875mm. These Linear canopies work with similar geometries in both architecture and furniture, to allow for perfect custom lighting solutions.

Making Of
"The Rest Pendants demonstrate our willingness as designers to leave relationships between materials as innocent and simple as possible. This philosophy of not overthinking or overworking an idea can be daring and it can also be difficult. But it preserves the beauty of the idea itself. This is a hallmark of the design of the SkLO collections."
