Details

Dolmen floor lamp is a narrow and lightweight parallelepiped designed to lean against walls, stand up or lay down, or hang on the ceiling in multiple installations. Essential in its constituent parts, it is composed of an aluminum "box" which contains and amplifies the effect of the two fluorescent (energy saving) light sources through two screens in polycarbonate lexan, white in the front and transparent in the back.

The four holes are of equal diameter, and characterize the frontal plane, generating an alternation of opaque and luminous surfaces which discreetly diffuse the light. The back screen fulfills the task of lighting, exploiting the walls of the room as a reflecting surface. Even the superficial treatment of the shell, coated in epoxydic powder paint in the orange version (no longer in production), brushed and anodized in the natural aluminum version, emphasizes the graphic matrix of Laviani's project, a constant feature of his design.

Dolmen floor lamp embodied Foscarini's idea of a flexible lamp which could be adapted to many different types of use, especially in its original lean-on-the-wall configuration; an interesting and early approach towards the multi-functionality of the object, which has undoubtedly become one of the central issues of contemporary design. Just as significant was the return to the linguistic and visual spirit of the Sixties, which would arouse considerable interest.

A perfect addition to your home furniture collection, with class and elegance. With its modern look and feel, it can easily complement your existing decor. This modern floor lamp is ideal as dining room lighting, living room lighting, bar area lighting, retail store lighting, bedroom lighting, showroom lighting, hotel lighting, office table lighting, and more.

This contemporary floor lamp focuses great attention on creativity and taste of innovation, out of the ordinary, and with highest care for details both of design and of functionality.

About the Designer
Architect and designer born in Cremona in 1960, Ferruccio Laviani was one of the founders of the Solid group and an associate of the De Lucchi studio in Milan between 1986 and 1991. Though continuing product design, his work over time has acquired a more ample dimension including the artistic direction, graphic identity, and design of trade fair appearances, events and showrooms for a number of companies in the furniture field. Orbital for Foscarini in 1992 marked his debut in designing lamps, a collaboration which proceeded with Bit, Dolmen, Supernova and Lenin.
