Halfway between art and design, Embrasse Moi is the majestic light sculpture whose name recalls the play on words between the English brass and the lamp's curved, enveloping shape. The suspension lamp has been handcrafted: a large sculpture in burnished brass that recalls the DNA strand, the weave of which unfolds like a fil rouge throughout the space, giving every project an artistic accent that makes it unique.
Spirito is a table lamp inspired by the glass ball used in spiritualistic rituals. The lamp has the stylized silhouette of a classic table lamp and is made of transparent blown glass with a gradient coating. The LED light source is placed in the base and directs the light upward, so the upper shade glows without visible wires or metal supports. The light is then reflected downward and forms a halo on the table surface. The glass elements are stacked on each other without fasteners, which removes visual noise. The lamp measures 420 mm in height and 260 mm in diameter.
Gentle light illumination of honey. This lighting is a disaster prevention item that also adds color to everyday life. Place honey in a glass container that looks like dripping honey and place it on a wooden pedestal with a rechargeable LED. In an emergency, the honey can be used as emergency food, and the pedestal can be used as a flashlight. This product is not to be stored away for use only in emergencies, but also to add color to everyday life.
Orbita reimagines light as a dynamic, ever-evolving presence, where celestial cycles meet cutting-edge technology. With its patented ultra-matte material and infinite rotation system, it invites tactile interaction and personalization, adapting seamlessly to different moments and spaces. Minimalist yet expressive, it transforms illumination into an experience, forging a timeless connection between innovation, design, and human perception. Designed in Argentina, crafted with Italian materials and precision engineering.
Achille Castiglioni was convinced that the designer should delete, delete, delete and at the end find the core aspect of the design. Bruno Munari was used to say that to complicate things is easy, while to simplify things is very hard. Flatiron comes from the crasis of this two references. A light source encased by a body made by a simple metal sheet with just one fold. The minimum amount of elements for a product with great prominence, a collection of lamps characterized by a design as essential as effective.
The Grampo Lamp makes use of brazilian wood fibers' natural flexibility, enabling it to bend, clip, or detach the light spot, converting it into a battery-powered flashlight that recharges while clipped in the stand. This design showcases the material's inherent characteristics and a commitment to sustainable sourcing. This project combines traditional woodworking with advanced manufacturing, including 3D printing. Grampo Lamp is inspired by the rich tradition of Brazilian wood design, yet it integrates functionalities that are only available in contemporary times.
Bangkok is a pendant lamp inspired by the tiered architecture of ancient Thai temples. The silhouette was based on the temple of the Emerald Buddha in Bangkok, restated in concise forms. Each lamp is formed of two or three glass elements set in tiers, recalling the light windows that fill Thai temples with light. Glossy tinted glass creates bright highlights on all sides, while a transparent version allows mixed compositions. LED boards with matte diffusers at the top and bottom produce soft diffused light.
Be Water is a linear, modular and recessed kinetic LED lamp for decorative wall washing. The lamp is installed inside a light cove or behind furniture, so only the moving light is visible. Light is refracted through a handmade glass cylinder that rotates on its axis and projects fluctuating flares onto the wall. The effect recalls sunlight reflected on the surface of moving water. One motor can drive from one to six modules. Optional filters create the colour variants Be Fire, Be Air and Be Earth. Aluminium, borosilicate glass and plexiglass are used, and each piece is made in Italy.
Designed by Andrei LiLo, Nevi is a desk lamp built around a self centering kinetic system. Constructed from hand finished Aisi 304 stainless steel, the lamp features a spherical base and a slender vertical stem. It functions as a task light with a focused beam, while also responding to touch with a gentle oscillation that returns the object to its vertical axis. The project extends to its aluminum packaging, which is designed to transform into a secondary ambient light. Released as a numbered limited edition, Nevi explores the relationship between kinetic behavior and material presence.
Ledvance is a professional outdoor area light designed for demanding weather conditions. The Opti Select beam control system allows quick switching between Type III, IV and V light distributions through an electronic switch, without removing lenses or screws. A 360 degree hovering LED structure forms a ventilated gap that improves heat dissipation and lets water and snow drain from all angles. The trapezoidal housing, seamless top surface and weatherproof coating limit glare and water ingress. The control module also accepts sound and light sensors.

Hoor Light is a reinterpretation of the Iranian Hooraneh, an architectural element designed to filter daylight through narrow openings. The lamp is formed by two metal plates held together with concealed magnets, enclosing a diffuser that distributes the light evenly. Instead of emitting a direct beam, it produces a gentle illumination that defines the surrounding space. The design connects traditional references with contemporary production methods, merging cultural heritage with present-day use.
Aloura is a pendant light designed for hotel interiors, loft spaces and other large rooms. The sculptural form gives the lamp a strong presence, and the appearance changes as the light is viewed from different angles. The structure combines a 3D-printed core with anodised aluminium tubes, which keeps the composition light in weight. A replaceable E27 bulb sits inside a frosted glass inner shade. Three diameters and three colours are offered, and the parametric design allows other sizes. The lamp is shipped partly assembled in one compact box.
