“Ho voluto portare il sole all’interno, dentro la casa, dentro gli spazi. Sun–Light of Love è un oggetto che – come il sole – non si sa bene dove inizi e dove finisca, non traccia una separazione chiara tra un dentro e un fuori: ha una presenza geometrica ma al tempo stesso molto fluida, organica.” “I wanted to bring the sun inside, into the home, into spaces. Sun–Light of Love is an object that makes it hard to know where it begins and where it ends, like sunlight. It has no clear separation between inside and outside: a geometric presence, but very fluid and organic at the same time.” Tord...

Sun-Light of Love, design: Tord Boontje Oltre alla sua particolare luce d’ambiente, morbida e diffusa grazie al gioco di riflessione sui raggi che la fanno rimbalzare, Sun-Light of Love proietta un’intensa luce d’accento sul piano sottostante. Besides its unique ambient light, soft and diffused thanks to the reflections on the rays, Sun-Light of Love projects intense accent lighting on the surface below. Le due varianti colore caratterizzano diversamente la lampada. Il bianco evoca la naturalita di forme floreali; l’oro esprime tutta la sua potenza solare. The lamp comes in two colours, outlining...

“Le geometrie Art Deco e Memphis; il vetro con le sue possibilità combinatorie e i complementi in lastra di vetro anni ’60… ma la lista di ciò che ha ispirato UpTown potrebbe continuare all’infinito. Il punto in comune è il desiderio di ritornare al vetro: volevo recuperare quel suo modo unico di comunicare trasparenza e colore, la ricchezza intrinseca del materiale.” “The geometric lines of Art Deco and Memphis; glass with its possibilities of combination, the complements in pane glass of the 1960s… the list of inspirations behind UpTown could go on and on. The common factor is the desire to...

UpTown, design: Ferruccio Laviani Suggestiva da spenta, UpTown diventa protagonista assoluta dello spazio quando e accesa. La lampada si illumina, le lastre si caricano di colore e la luce viene proiettata verso l’alto. Already striking when it is off, UpTown becomes the absolute protagonist of any space when it is on.

design: Andrea Anastasio “Madre è il punto di arrivo di una riflessione sulla luce: il suo ruolo e la sua essenza. La forma allude ai fianchi ampi delle dee madri, le divinità che proteggevano la fertilità della terra. Ma anche al vaso come contenitore di vita, perché esso nasce per accogliere il cibo prima che i fiori.” “Madre is the destination of reflections on light, its role, its essence. The form alludes to the large hips of mother goddesses, the divinities that protect the fertility of the earth. But also the vessel as a container of life, because it was first created to contain food,...

Madre, design: Andrea Anastasio II grande corpo luminoso di Madre accoglie nell’incavo superiore un vaso in vetro borosilicato satinato, dove e possibile alloggiare dei rami per creare un insieme sobrio ed elegante. The upper hollow of the large luminous body of Madre contains a vase in frosted borosilicate glass, in which to place branches to create an elegant composition. Il foro che interrompe il vaso al centro crea una visione magica; il punto di confine e scambio fra luce interna ed esterna riunite in un’unica immagine. The opening, which interrupts the vase at the centre, creates a magical...
