Binic is the name of a small lighthouse on the
coast of Brittany, the region the designer Ionna
Vautrin comes from, which is the inspiring theme
of this small table lamp filled with character. Its
colorful and unusual shape whets the
imagination and is immediumtely appealing. The
round glossy finish upper volume is supported by
a conical satin finish base, casting an intense and
uniform spotlight downwards. With its palette of 6
trendy colours, Binic is in tune with the
personality of whoever chooses his or her
favourite version and it blends in seamlessly with
a range of domestic environments and styles: a
study, a child’s or an adult’s bedroom or a
personal corner in a living room. A packaging
designed by Ionna Vautrin herself, unique and fun
like the lamp itself, suggests Binic as a “take
away” object, to be given away as a present, or for
personal use.
Born in France in 1979, Ionna Vautrin is graduated from L'école de design Nantes Atlantique in 2002. She worked successively for Camper in Spain, and by the Studios of George J. Sowden in Italy and of Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec in France. At the same time she develops its own works with differents design companies: first time with Industreal in Milan, then with the Tools Galerie in Paris and since 2010 with Foscarini.
Foscarini focuses on developing new products but chooses only to put into production those that express new ideas. While inspiration is always valued, Foscarini’s development phase sometimes takes years of progressive research to analyze materials, shapes, processes and operating modes that sometimes lead to results drastically different from the initial concept.
This is why Foscarini lamps are so innovative yet built to weather the whim of trends and become true classics.
