About this asset

Japandi natural timber cylindrical pendant light features a slender drop rod and an inner fabric diffuser in this SketchUp model. The luminaire displays an elongated cylindrical form defined by an open, vertical slat outer cage crafted from pale natural timber. Horizontal banding secures the upper, middle, and lower perimeters of the frame, providing structural balance. Inside the slatted enclosure sits an inset cylindrical diffuser in off-white fabric or textured paper, designed to emit a soft, omnidirectional ambient glow while shielding direct glare. A central vertical downrod extends upwards, terminating in a minimalist ceiling canopy cap that matches the blonde wood tone of the structural cage.

The download is a 3.6 MB compressed archive containing the native SketchUp (.skp) model. It opens directly in SketchUp; for 3ds Max, Blender or Cinema 4D, import it through a SketchUp importer or convert it first.

Designed for seamless import into SketchUp projects, this component functions cleanly as an instanced ceiling fixture. Users can nest an omni light or mesh emitter within the interior cylinder to simulate realistic illumination in rendering plugins. The geometry allows straightforward height adjustments by scaling or editing the suspended downrod component to match specific room ceiling datums without distorting the cylindrical shade proportions.

This pendant fixture integrates effortlessly into hospitality and residential interiors embracing Japandi, Scandinavian, or modern minimalist aesthetics. Position it in dining rooms above wooden tables, suspend it as accent lighting beside a bedroom headboard, or array multiple fixtures over a tea room counter or restaurant banquet seating. It pairs naturally with neutral textiles, light oak joinery, and textured lime wash plaster walls.
