Collection: Levitating Art

Levitating art is exactly what it sounds like: a sculpture, object, or design piece that appears to float in mid-air, held in place by a precisely calibrated magnetic field rather than any visible support. It's part science, part illusion, and part genuinely careful engineering — and it's the entire foundation of what we build at Leviou.

Each piece in this collection uses the same core technology: a magnetic base with embedded sensors that continuously adjust the field strength to hold an object in a stable, hovering position. The result is a sculpture that appears suspended in space, often rotating slowly, with nothing touching it from above or below.

Why Levitating Art Has Become So Popular

Levitating art pieces sit at the intersection of design and physics. Unlike traditional sculpture or decor, they invite a second look — the "how is that possible" moment is part of the experience. That makes them a natural fit for spaces meant to make an impression: a living room centerpiece, a reception desk, a retail display, or a desk that doubles as a video call background.

Explore the Collection

From flame-like sculptures (Fire) to minimalist floating spheres (Orb, Sphere) and levitating drinkware (Glass), every piece here is engineered and designed in Sweden, with the same precision magnetic core at the center of each one. Choose a wired Core base for a permanent setup, or a wireless Core Pro base for portability.

FAQ

What is levitating art?
Levitating art refers to sculptures or objects that appear to hover in mid-air, held in a stable position by a magnetic field rather than any visible support.

How does levitating art actually work?
A magnetic base with built-in sensors continuously adjusts an electromagnetic field to hold a lightweight object in a fixed position above it, creating the illusion of levitation.

Is levitating art safe to have at home?
Yes. The technology uses a low-power, contained magnetic field, similar in principle to other household electronics.

Can I choose which sculpture floats?
Yes — every base works with any Leviou sculpture, so you can mix and match based on style.
