Ladies & Gentlemen Float Wide Ceiling Pendant

The L&G Float Wide Ceiling Pendant came from Dylan Davis and Jean Lee wanting to create a horizontal light installation that feels like it's floating rather than just hanging. The setup uses a wide matte aluminum shade (39 by 25 inches) suspended horizontally about 14 inches below your ceiling, with a brass sphere detail that breaks up the flat geometry. At 43 inches wide overall, this works over dining tables, in entryways, or as a statement piece in living rooms where you need distributed ambient lighting across width rather than focused downward from one point. The shade hangs from blackened metal hardware with a minimal 4.8-inch round canopy, so most of the visual presence comes from the shade itself rather than mounting components.

The integrated LED board puts out 800 lumens at 2700K - enough for ambient lighting without being harsh task light. Runs on 40 watts through a 24-volt power supply (low voltage fixture), and you'll need to accommodate that power supply either in your electrical box or somewhere nearby according to local code. The unit comes with specific power supply models depending on your voltage: LTF TA40WD24LED for 120V systems, LTF TU40WD24LED for 220V. ELV dimming comes standard so you can adjust brightness, but you'll need an electronic wall dimmer - verify compatibility at ltftechnology.com using the model numbers. At 8 pounds the fixture's light enough for standard ceiling boxes, and it's UL certified for North American and European electrical systems.

Ladies & Gentlemen Studio designed the Float collection for situations where you want presence without visual weight - the horizontal shade creates a strong graphic element while the actual fixture components stay minimal. Davis and Lee's Brooklyn studio has been exploring how lighting can define space through form rather than just illumination since they founded it in 2010. The wide format works particularly well in contemporary interiors with clean lines, where a chandelier would feel too traditional but simple pendants don't provide enough visual interest. Everything's customizable for finishes, materials, colors, and sizing, so you can dial in exactly what your space needs rather than adapting standard dimensions.
