Lamps By Artemide: Part 2

Today we will continue our talk about interesting and new lamps that are produced by Artemide.

Metal petal
A sconce that is called Eurialo looks very simple but provokes mixed associations. It is very similar to the fashionable fastener which has unexpectedly appeared on a wall. The sconce is presented in two colours. The “petal” is made so that it can cover a light source from different directions and, so, powerful light will not be extremely bright.

A table lamp Tolomeo Micro is a continuation of a popular series of table lamps and floor lamps Tolomeo. The progress dictates new conditions, and Artemide is the first who picks up new trends. So that a popular series of lamps has also extended at the expense of a new table lamp.

Luxerion by Artemide is another series of lamps that are very popular today. The interest to these lamps is clear – the factory has made a rather courageous experiment, having added to the lamps the function of air cleaner. And, probably, it was done in order to justify the prefix Lux in the name. Only the well-known designers were invited to create the design of these lamps. Four extremely interesting objects appeared:

The pendant lamp AZIO is remarkable due to the fact that its design was developed by Karim Rashid. The deftactor is made from glass. However, character of this lamp is intimate.

The pendant lamp FARSALO by Michele De Lucchi is very close to a Rashid’s. The light is even more intimate and warm.

The lamp FILIPPI by Alessandro Pedretti Studio Rota and Partners is very similar or even indistinguishable from AZIO by the charactristics.

And, at last, I am glad to present TIAN XIA AIR. This lamp is a cylinder that is made from from transparent thermoplastic. If the previous lamps gave, basically, two kinds of light – direct and reflected – that Tian Xia Air represents almost all kinds – and direct, reflected, disseminated and directed. And, not only white, but also colour.

B+M Leuchten Lamps

Lamps that are produced by German factory B+M Leuchten stand out a little bit from other lamps. When Italians pronounce such words as “exclusive” or “elite”, they mean, first of all, the unusual look, the originality of design, the unique idea that is obviously evident.

When the same words are pronounced by Germans, it traditionally means the highest quality of each detail, pedantic German attention to study of each little detail – both while manufacturing and designing. These lamps are in all senses deprived of mistakes. Any connection, any joint are adjusted ideally. While producing lamps only the unique technologies are used, such as the quality of the varnish covering that is very durable and stable to outer influences. All lamps are made from a brass of file that adds to them noble massiveness and weightiness.

The questions of functionality of lamps by B+M Leuchten are thought over very carefully and realized with the same scrupulousness. All the connections, telescopic sliding bars and other details are adjusted precisely that produces very pleasant impression in the process of using. In some lamps by B+M Leuchten the valuable breeds of wood as well as high-quality glass are also used. The majority of pendant lamps by B+M Leuchten are supplied by graceful systems of regulation of height that allows to change illumination in order to create a necessary atmosphere.

But nevertheless, these lamps are produced not only for display as some art things which involve only an eye, these lamps are designed for pleasure of a person who is going to live with them. It is pleasant to touch them, to use them, these are lamps first of all for the self of person.

By the way, B+M Leuchten is the factory where each sconce has its own switch. A mere nothing, but a very pleasant one.

New Lamps By Prandina

Today, I would like to present to you some new lamps that were made by such brand as Prandina.

This series of lamps consists of floor lamp, table lamp and pendant lamp. Such designers as Berliners Katja Hettler and Jüla Tullmann create it. The lamp that is called Room will force you to reconsider the traditional perception of lamps. The closed lampshade of the lamp that is made from printed silk makes it not only a light source, but also into an interior subject – a stool or a pouffe.

Designers conceive the lamp that is called Guru as a challenge to time and to space. The lamp is made from only two elements: the form and the material without any visible decorations: the upper part is made from friable synthetic material and the lower part from therm-firm transparent plastic.

In the process of production of this lamp the brand Prandina uses alternative materials – so that a lampshade is made from heat resisting transparent plastic. The pendant lamp, the table lamp or a floor lamp – Ginger - are characterised by the graceful design that is well adapted in any interior.

This table lamp TAU is created by architects Alberto Pasetti and Stefano Olivieri. The design is very simple. It consists actually of two elements – the base and the lampshade. Accurate proportions and simplicity are the main aesthetic advantages of this table lamp.

New family of wall lamps – Platone - are created by Filippo Protasoni. Their design can be characterised as effective indirect illumination – thanks to curvature form the luminescence turns out to be more volumetric and saturate.
