Possibly the most complicated and heaviest object we've made! The Lodestar was designed as a beacon of light for a reimagined and growing neighbourhood, just North of the city center, in front of the RCMP building. Project of this scale and complexity is only possible with a dedicated team of passionate and knowledgeable individuals...

Designlines writes : " Toronto-based brand @aaline.systems , by @fishtnk , combines architectural lighting with acoustic systems, all made with locally sourced, zero-plastic materials - a rarity for acoustic products, which are often made with plastic felt. Its facility only uses renewable energy sourced within the region so the whole process is kind to Earth".
