Lazada
Designed by Bernard Schottlander
As admirer of Alexander Calder, in 1951 Schottlander created the Mantis series of lamps. Movement is intrinsic to all of Schottlander’s work: an artist, an engineer and in no small measure a handyman, he devised a clever system of counterweights combined with a series of strong, and flexible metal bars. The shade also is unique of its kind. Like an acrobat suspended in mid-air, it is made from aluminium using spinning and chasing techniques that are a part of the metalworker???Ǩ?Ѣs inventory of skills, but to which he has brought his sculptor???Ǩ?Ѣs eye to create a helical movement in which the symmetrical and the asymmetrical are in opposition.

The design of the armchair combines, in a hybridisation process, two parts that are only apparently separate from the point of view of formal memory: the rotating tripod made of light die-cast aluminium, furnished with a visible shock-absorbing mechanism, and the enveloping shell made of Vienna cane stretched over a frame of hot-bent and machined […]

Between 1951 and 1957, Le Corbusier designed the Sanskar Kendra Museum, a museum in the Indian city of Ahmedabad. The spiral shaped building contains all the fundamentals of his architecture. For this project, in 1954 Le Corbusier conceived a lighting system he named ?Projecteur?, installed in the structure to maximise the lighting effect

Sometimes the simplest things are the most lasting and memorable, the Topan pendant being a brilliant example. It was the first mass produced lamp by Verner Panton, later to be followed by the Flowerpot. TopanÕs simplicity and coolness proves to be evergreen.
