The First of Its Kind

As a unique addition to the lighting market, Topo is the first of its kind to feature an innovative composite material combining the strength and durability of cement with the flexibility of FSC- and PEFC-certified wood. The material evokes the familiar patterns and textures of terrazzo with an added organic warmth, while meeting the requirements to support the latest LEED certification.
