Helios Projection Kit
Tax included where applicable. Delivery, rigging and commissioning arranged by your concierge.
ELVARNIXO Shaping — light is made at the last metre
The Helios draws with light: projection optics that hold a razor edge, steel gobos seating in register so patterns repeat, and framing blades that cut like a fine enlarger easel.
A parabolic is a precision instrument pretending to be an umbrella: sixteen or twenty-four ribs holding a true curve, a focusing rod that glides and locks, and fabrics whose silver keeps its colour after the two-hundredth assembly. Ours are hand-finished, serialised, and repairable rib by rib.
Design & Craft
- Every panel, rib and layer stocked as a part for fifteen years
- Lens options from wide wash to surgical spot
- S-type as standard; speedrings for major systems in the options
- Frames open in seconds and forgive the two-hundredth assembly
- Steel gobos seat with register — patterns repeat

Care
Brush textiles dry, never wash silver fabrics, and let diffusion dry before rolling. Store parabolics on the rod, ribs relaxed. Small tears are repairable — send photographs to the concierge and parts ship from Prague.
Questions, Answered
Can textiles be replaced?
Every panel, rib and diffusion layer is a stocked part for fifteen years. Modifiers should retire from fashion, not from failure.
How repeatable is the focus effect on the parabolics?
The rod is indexed — note the number, repeat the look. Beam maps at three rod positions ship in the box.
The ELVARNIXO Promise
Every ELVARNIXO fixture ships with its own photometric and colour report — CRI, TLCI and SSI measured on our Prague bench for that serial number, not copied from a brochure.
