Hoba by Ludovica + Roberto Palomba | image © designboom

 

 

The Hoba lamp collection by Ludovica + Roberto Palomba is inspired by the Hoba meteorite, the heaviest ever to fall onto Earth. The lamps are made of opaque rusticated blown glass, resembling stones shaped by flight. HOBA lamps are crafted to be asymmetrical and irregular, with what Palomba describes as a ‘perfect imperfection that triggers magic, curiosity, elective affinities with human beings.’ The glass seems crushed in various points, leaving behind a series of imprints, creating an anti-geometry effect that maintains dynamism and organic deformation.

Fregio is an ornamental lamp designed by Andrea Anastasio that combines antique and contemporary elements. The lamp’s decoration is created through the designer’s experimentation with bas relief fragments from the Gatti archive. Fregio is a highly decorative lamp that emits both upward and downward light, making it ideal for lighting tables or desks. The lamp consists of two ceramic sections anchored to a metal profile containing LEDs, connected by straps inspired by the shipping industry. These straps serve as a connection between the contemporary and ornate aspects of the lamp.

Nuée by Marc Sadler | image © designboom

 

 

The Nuée pendant, designed by Marc Sadler for Foscarini, is a lightweight creation that showcases the designer’s experimental and interdisciplinary approach. Its informal yet poetic style is achieved through a delicate suspension system of thin steel cables, and the diffused light that emanates from the technical, three-dimensional fabric that encompasses the lamp adds to its overall appeal. The fabric can be shaped and gathered in various areas around the lamp’s rounded silhouette, resulting in a dynamic interplay of light and shadow.

 

Garcia Cumini designed the Spokes lighting fixture for Foscarini, which conveys a sense of weightlessness and movement. The light emanates from within the fixture and creates a mesmerizing pattern of solid and empty spaces as if passing through a mystical and geometric mesh. The Spokes 2 suspension lamp resembles a lantern or birdcage in shape.

Ronan Bouroullec has designed a new collection of lights for Flos called Céramique. The collection features three table lamps with a ceramic body and diffuser, finished with a lead-free crystalline lacquer. Each lamp has a base, stem, and cap, and the position of the cap can be adjusted to change the type of illumination. The lamps are characterized by their connecting blade between the base and diffuser. The three configurations create different luminous flux for different functions.

 

The down version is for focused light, the side version illuminates walls or corners, and the up version creates soft, indirect ambient lighting. The collection emphasizes the materiality and craftsmanship of the ceramics. Ronan Bouroullec has utilized his experience with ceramics to create a contemporary and essential design for Céramique.

contardi

 

The ‘Baggy’ lighting collection, designed by Paola Navone for Contardi, exudes a casual and playful vibe, reminiscent of oversized pants which served as its namesake. Each lamp in the Baggy series is made up of individual modules of various sizes, allowing for complete creative freedom when assembling them. The satin polycarbonate diffuser features an irregular appearance, resembling a crumpled paper tube.

 

Meanwhile, Paola Navone introduces soft textile cords to blend with the brand‘s ‘archi-decorative stylistic code,’ acting as a connective element for the table and floor versions while supporting the suspended version. The collection’s uniqueness lies in its organic shape, within which a custom LED source emits light in a ‘magical and unexpected way.’

Baggy is the result of an irreplicable alchemy between our way of designing and Contardi,’ says Paola Navone.In a very special and pertinent way, Contardi has fostered the aptitude for imperfection in our design approach, accepting an interpretation of the company’s rigorous essence, in a project of lamps of ephemeral balance and an air of irony.’ explore the most stellar lighting designs from euroluce 2023
