Designed by Bernard Schottlander
A silhouette that naturally evokes a praying mantis in weightlessness, the Mantis floor lamp has now been structurally tweaked and improved just as designer Schottlander envisioned in his time.

Its sinuous curves resulting from the shaping of a sheet of frosted methacrylate softly diffuse the light. It brings together ?simplicity and concept? which for Magistretti are at the heart of durable design.

Onfale, designed by Luciano Vistosi in 1978, is a masterpiece of design that catches the attention of anyone who sees it. Its sinuous, rounded shape recalls the perfect shape of a mushroom. It comes with a blown glass frame and an opal glass diffuser, providing a uniform and lovely illumination. The transparent hot-rolled glass edge […]
