Details

Foscarini and Marc Sadler's shared passion for research into new technologies has given rise to Twiggy, the iconic arched floor lamp which is available in an entire collection of lamps made of composite material on a lacquered fibreglass base. In the ceiling version, the diffuser support recalls the arched shape of the floor version. The support is secured in one point and can swivel by 330°: an excellent solution to decentralise the light point, guaranteeing maximum flexibility. The diffuser guarantees direct lighting in the area underneath the lamp and – thanks to the transparency of the upper protection disk – diffuses efficient lighting by reflection. Available in two colours, it can blend in seamlessly with any décor and style.

Born in Austria, Marc Sadler is a French citizen who now lives in Milan. Graduated from the first course of “esthétique industrielle” at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, he is dedicated to experimentation with plastic materials, perfecting the first ski-boot in thermoplastic material at the beginning of the ’70’s. He worked with the Italian Caber (then Lotto ) for several years becoming a specialist in sports design, subsequently co-operating with all the most important international companies in America, Asia, Japan and Europe. Thanks to his previous experience in researching and experimenting new materials and production processes he was able to put this knowledge to excellent use in various sectors. Today he continues to collaborate with leading manufacturers of furniture, lighting and accessories plus large and small electric appliances.

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.
