This Revit family presents a mid-century inspired Sputnik pendant light featuring a radiating gold-finished frame with clear glass stems. The fixture features a central spherical hub finished in polished gold, from which multiple linear arms extend in a radial starburst pattern. Each arm is tipped with a clear glass cylinder, creating a dynamic, spiky silhouette characteristic of mid-century modern design. A slender down-rod connects the central sphere to a matching cylindrical ceiling canopy. The proportions are compact, making it suitable for lower-ceiling applications or as a focal point in smaller rooms. The metallic finish adds a touch of luxury, while the glass elements provide a clean, reflective quality that interacts well with interior lighting schemes.

As a ceiling-hosted Revit family, this asset snaps directly to the underside of ceiling planes within your project file. Users should verify the light source definition within the family editor to ensure correct photometric distribution during rendering. The material parameters are typically mapped to standard Revit material library entries, allowing for quick adjustments to the gold finish or glass transparency. Ensure the family is loaded into the appropriate project category to enable proper scheduling and tagging within your lighting fixture schedules.
