Spokes Suspension Lamp

COLLECTION DESCRIPTION

Details

The hanging lamp Spokes was inspired by images of antique oriental lanterns and less exotic aviaries. The designers observed the spokes of a bicycle wheel and this is what gave the lamp its name. The result is soft shapes and a lightweight lamp which holds the light allowing it to filter out into the room. The lightweight quality of the project combines with the solidity of its forms in metal rod and the practicality of its LED light source allowing it both to light up surfaces perfectly and project an interplay of light and shade onto the walls with a magical multiplication effect. The development of the project into two forms, two sizes and two colour variants highlights its versatility making Spokes particularly suitable for both living spaces and public venues and ideal in large architectural contexts as well in its multiple compositions.

ABOUT DESIGNER

Established in Udine (Italy) in 2012, the García Cumini Associati studio brings together the consolidated experience of its two founders in the design industry. The company merges two multi-disciplinary cultures and creates designs, art installations, artistic direction, graphic design and brand identity, developed with the aim of making people fall in love with a given product or company. The main philosophy and ethic of the studio is to bring to life an intuition or a poetic vision, assessing projects from every angle, with a keen eye on technology and the client's artistic expressions and style.

ABOUT BRAND

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.
