The name Yoko reveals the nature of this object:
two similar yet different syllables, like the two
volumes with soft outlines that intersect and
complete each other, producing a light, balanced
whole. Yoko revolutionises the archetype of a
table lamp, placing the light body at the bottom -
rather than at the top - and an iridescent bubble
on top of it. The lamp is made of
polymethylacrylate with blow moulding
technology, which creates an object that is both
light and unbreakable, functional and poetic. In
choosing colours for Yoko the two Norwegian
designers Anderssen&Voll were inspired by
Nordic light. The transparent body is tinged with
delicate shades that are barely noticeable: three
gentle shades that interact with a heart of intense
light.
Anderssen & Voll is an Oslo based design studio led by Torbjørn Anderssen (1976) and Espen Voll (1965). Torbjørn and Espen were cofounders of Norway Says. Since the start up in 2009, their work has spanned from textile design through tableware and furniture to electronics for some of Europe’s most renowned international design brands.
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.
