Exploring the intersection of nature, design and illumination, the Molecule chandelier from Hollis+Morris was inspired by the elegant bonds of atomic structures. 

Devised by Mischa Couvrette, founder and lead designer of Hollis+Morris, the compelling shape of the Molecule chandelier strikes a balance between “order and organic movement” and its striking structural formation is intended to make its presence known as it illuminates a room. 

Mimicking the hexagonal geometries found in molecular pattern, the Molecule chandelier is built around plated metal Y-shaped connector modules, which form an adaptable and modular system that can expand or contract to fit perfectly within its architectural context. 

The Molecule chandelier from Hollis+Morris is available as a single Y-shaped entity or fastened together in four standard arrangements of two, three or four (the standard sizes are aptly referred to as 1Y, 2Y, 3Y and 4Y); custom configurations are also an option. 

Designed and manufactured in Canada, the vertical poles of the Molecule chandelier are made from FSC-certified white oak or walnut – both of which can be treated with a natural and the oak can be stained in white or black. 

With the natural finish, the white oak showcases its naturally beautiful soft and shifting tones, while the walnut expresses its organic chocolate hue. Meanwhile, the white finish subtly accentuates the oak’s magnificent grain and the black finish adds a luxurious depth. 

The horizontal Y-shaped connectors are made from metal that can be finished in brass, copper or stainless steel, as well as be powder-coated in a wide range of colours. Spherical hand-blown glass orbs top each pole and emit a lovely glow.
