This fantastic table lamp is similar in style and elegance to the other products in the Tolomeo range. With sophisticated and structural design, this lamp looks incredible in the modern home. It uses very similar engineering processes as the other wall-mounted lamps such as the sconce, the clip spot and the spotlight as they all provide excellent functionality as well as being incredibly beautiful in design. The lamp itself solves a plethora of common problems as its design and construction allows the light to be moved and manoeuvred to meet lighting requirements. As with the other lights in the Tolomeo range, the table lamp helps to minimise the need for lots of static light sources as it has been designed in such a way that it can provide light from different angles. Designers Michele De Lucchi and Giancarlo Fassina from the Artemide group have created this addition to be placed upon a desk or bedside table to act as a more accessible and moveable light source.
De Lucchi and Fassina are renowned for their contribution in the modern lighting world, and have a very strong ethos that allows them to design and engineer functional and creative lighting designs. The Tolomeo range primarily focuses on flexibility and usability, making sure that the owners can use the light in as many ways as possible. This determination was acknowledged in 1989 when they received the Compasso d’Oro award for excellence in engineering and performance based on the design of the Tolomeo range. Since then, the designers have been working for Artemide to create a wide array of modern table lamps, floor lamps, wall sconce’s and suspensions. The Tolomeo range has become an icon of contemporary lighting design and really shows off the intelligence and creativity of the designers.
