Doric is designed by Umberto Bellardi Ricci for Tacchini: a wall light that evokes the Doric columns of classical Greece and is inspired by the designer?s recent experiments with the golden spiral, or divine proportion, and curvilinear shapes and spiral shapes that can be obtained from it. Made of painted sheet metal, it emanates a symmetrical light that spreads downwards on the wall from both sides. Thus, the light caresses the wall following the gentle movement that creates the illusion that the wall lamp is wrapping around itself ? a movement that can be read very well when looking at the lamp from the side.

Star of the series is the sofa, whose generous rounded lines provided evolutionary DNA for the entire collection ? including an armchair, a chaise-longue and […]
Respecting the thought of Gianfranco Frattini, the re-edition of Sesann keeps the spirit of the product intact. The particular configuration of Sesann – both formal and functional – constitutes the basis for a system of products characterized by the same structural elements, but declined in unique and fascinating objects. This approach of synthesis and reduction, […]
Inspiration does not follow regular routes. Only with hindsight does inspiration seem indeed logical. One thing is true, though: inspiration is a source of inspiration.” With these words – at the same time playful and profound – designers Marten Claesson, Eero Koivisto and Ola Rune sum up the coming into being of the Kelly project […]
