For #FontanaArte to amaze means to surround yourself with Masters.
It could not be otherwise for the company founded by #gioponti, which has had personalities such as #maxingrand and #gaeaulenti as its artistic directors, and names such as #umbertoriva, Shigeru Ban, #alvarosiza, #renzopiano as designers, to name but a few.
For #design week 2019 - in the Euroluce biennial - #FontanaArte calls upon #stefanoboeri Architetti and launches “lasospesa”, the new table lamp.
For one of the best-known Milanese architects in the world, whose Bosco Verticale is one of the most representative and iconic projects of our time, trying his hand at a lamp has been an interesting change of scale.
Like #FontanaArte: historical and contemporary Milan, with elegant entrances and new skyscrapers, fashion and major art exhibitions.
Like the art of #FontanaArte: it takes shape in an object that does not preclude function, from which a light comes to life. #lasospesa is in fact a symmetrical table lamp, born from the elementary principle of the incorporating of two cylinders: a cylinder of primary light suspended in a cylinder of diffused light.
“A non-lamp with multiple uses and changing luminosity, simple and classic, #lasospesa seems to have always been there, where you put it” says #stefanoboeri.
The essentiality of the diffused light table lamp is provided by an external diffuser - rigorously glass in the manner of #FontanaArte - crafted with four different finishes: transparent and striped, frosted, copper painted, smoked painted. The internal diffuser is frosted borosilicate glass. “One of the interpreters of contemporary style - not only in architecture and #design - has conceived another step of timeless continuity for FontanaArte”- affirms Francesco Librizzi, artistic director of FontanaArte.
The presentation introduced by managing director Giuseppe Di Nuccio opens #design week and the series of initiatives involving the Archive of #gaeaulenti, the Torre Branca and the new FontanaArte shop-in-shop in La Rinascente.
“We are proud to represent all the “Milan-ness” of #design week with #stefanoboeri and #lasospesa, presenting it in our flagship store in Corso Monforte, the Milanese street of light, which, together with other stages of the week, makes up the #FontanaArte Tour of Milan, a genuine homage to Milan and its culture of design” - underlines Giuseppe Di Nuccio.
