XXL Dome
designed by: Ingo Maurer

The XXL Dome is one of the most impressive of Ingo Maurer's lamps. With an approximate
diameter of six feet, the XXL certainly lives up to its name. In addition to its huge scale,
the construction is amazing with a fiberglass exterior of silver aluminum and an interior
in available in fluorescent pink, orange, red or green matte lacquer.

AIR - M
designed by: Ray Power

The Air family was an idea of Irish designer Ray Power, who, from the start was fascinated by the
huge potential offered by Polywood®. He started to manipulate the wood and explored its
wide range of possibilities to create tridimensional objects. In this case the result was a conical
stand and shade set which suggests visual and technical stability. Even in the table version
this lamp preserves its lightness, adapting itself to very different environments. A good choice
for a wide range of places, from private homes to commercial areas. Air-M is the Winner of
the prestigious award Red Dot 2010 (Germany) and the Good Design award (Chicago, 2009).
Air-M available in two sizes: 24 cm x 34 cm x 22 cm and 27 cm x 49 cm x 28 cm.

WIND
designed by: Karim Rashid

Designer Karim Rashid, known for fresh, sculptural designs and highly collectable creations,
has captured the energy and elegance of mid-century modernism and updated it for the
21st century with the Wind Table Lamp. The round acacia base echoes the fabulous line
of the white fabric shade, and the Nambe alloy mirror polish middle adds brilliant shape
and balance. An instant conversation piece, this lamp works wonders in interiors that
feature strong lines and bold shapes—a particularly smart fit for sidetables and
contemporary offices. available at: nambe.com

DESA
designed by: Pierre Charpin

This table lamp, defined by the meeting of two elements: a source of light and a diffuser,
presents itself as a cylinder of mouth-blown opal glass, with a powerful yet sober presence.
With a satin-finish black metal ''belt'' closely following the opaline surface, this lamp gives off
a soft light. Its dimensions make of it a sculpture within the confines of an apartment, a
mysterious wisp, just as lovely extinguished as it is when lit.

Shade in mouth-blown opal glass. Inset ring in satin black lacquered steel. A tube in
satin black lacquered steel, in the form of an inverted 'U' shape, conceals the black
electric flex and can also be used as a handle to assist in moving this large-scale lamp.

ETCH WEB LAMP
designed by: Tom Dixon

ETCH WEB is a vast 65cm wide shade with an unusual open structure, designed to cast
atmospheric angular shadows when lit. Another experiment in our long running exploration of
mathematics and geometry, an irregular pentagon shape is repeated 60 times across the body
to create a total sphere. The enormous globe is astonishingly lightweight, weighing only 980
grams, with a correspondingly ethereal visual attitude. Formed from copper anodised aluminium
through a process of digital photo-acid etching, an oversized LED bulb is suspended within the
centre of Etch Web to make it the ultimate shadow play pendant.

GLOW SCONCE
designed by: Christine + Jacques Rouviere

Christine Rouviere studied art and successfully exhibited her neo realist paintings in art galleries

subtle texture. The LED lamping, hidden in the base, provides long life, excellent color
temperature (3100K), high efficiency (45 lumens per watt), and low energy consumption
(15.84 watts). The solid brass metal base is offered in Satin Nickel or Blackened Brass. Your
interiors will bask in the glow of this alluring wall sconce; ideal for many upscale residential

GLOW SCONCE
designed by: Christine + Jacques Rouviere

The suspension lamp Jamaica infuses a feeling of lightness with its soft suspended volume
obtained by a sheet of paper covered by a thin layer of polymer, without enveloping it
completely but instead attached at the bottom to the housing of the light source, free to
illuminate the underlying surface directly. available at: www.foscarini.com

TAJ
designed by: Ferruccio Laviani

Taj is the newest arrival in the Kartell Lights family. More than a lamp, it is a three dimensional
sign, a sculpture of light, a presence that keeps us company on our desk or on a piece of
furniture. Although Taj is a table lamp, it is a departure from the stereotype which demands
that it be articulated, jointed and mechanised and leans towards a simple shape that
is a practical answer to the function it is called upon to perform. Beautiful both when
turned on and when turned off, Taj exploits LED technology to optimise and minimise
the light source as much as possible and at the same time it is a new step in the
corporate technical challenge to produce an object from its unique know-how.
Taj is produced in the completely “naked” transparent version, in the “frozen”
translucent plastic version and in the shiny matte coloured version.

EMPEROR COLLECTION
designed by: Neri & Hu

listened, enchanted, to the magic sound…" Bamboo rattan cage, aluminum frame
with a glass diffuser. Each cage is woven by hand and therefore has a unique character.
