Designed by Umberto Bellardi Ricci
From the first piece of bent metal, Umberto Bellardi Ricci experiments with shapes and reflections to capture and refract light as if it were coming from the curves of a spiral while the light source remains embedded in the initial fold.

Linked to the designer?s recent studies on the spiral of the golden ratio, Ancora deviates from pure geometry to become a wall mirror that brings a modern reinterpretation of sculptural light into domestic spaces.

Made of painted sheet metal, it emanates a […]
