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.

Modules with unusual shapes give life to original seating configurations where aggregation and variability take center stage. Additional System is a project by Joe Colombo from 1967, reimagined today by Tacchini while respecting its original spirit: a modular system with timeless allure, still ?futuristic? even 50 years later. Cushions of six different sizes, inspired by […]
An historical project that fascinates us once again thanks to the current ergonomic value of the split between the headrest and lumbar support: an advanced concept for its time when it was presented, now made even more effective by modern upholstery in varying degrees of thickness. The curved tubular structure, typical example of twentieth century […]
