Details

Magneto is an essential and functional lamp featuring an invisible power: the magnetic field of a magnet. Indeed, the project focuses on a spherical magnet which combines two simple elements: a support rod with a round base and a compact LED light source, similar to an electric torch or a microphone, affording the utmost versatility of angling and movement along the rod. Magneto teams the flexibility of use of a lamp suitable for infinite solutions with absolute formal and functional simplicity. The intense, concentrated and focused light can be directed down onto a small area, such as a book, a magazine, or a computer keyboard, or it can be directed up to create an atmosphere filled with suggestion. Hence, a multitude of usage requirements can be accommodated: from reading to diffused lighting. Magneto is available in two sizes, as a table lamp or a floor lamp, and in two colours, white and black, to distinguish different spaces and moments: from offices to lounges, living rooms and bedrooms. At all times featuring a special, strong yet subtle, attractive and seductive personality, in a word: magnetic.

He has been an industrial designer since 1992. He also carries out an intense didactic work for several universities and design schools, in Italy and abroad. He was awarded a number of international prizes. In 2001 his project for a disposable fork "Moscardino" (designed with Matteo Ragni) won the Compasso d'Oro ADI and is now part of the permanent design exhibition at MOMA, New York.

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.
