Oluce
Acrilica Table Lamp
Price € 3.877,00
Designed in 1962 and awarded at the XIII Triennale in 1964, the Acrilica lamp by Oluce testifies to the experimental fervor and the great imagination with which the Italian designers of those years faced the design challenge constituted by new materials of synthetic origin. Acrilica is desgined by one of the Italian designers most identified with the tension towards innovation, the Milanese Joe Colombo, who conceived it together with his brother Gianni for the spaces of a hotel in Sardinia. Originally called model 281, it was the first project of the successful partnership between Colombo and Oluce. At the time it was able to amaze - and still impresses today - for the innovative use of Perspex methacrylate, modeled in a C curve capable of capturing the light emitted by the lighting body at the base and radiating it along its entire surface.

Designed by
Joe Colombo
Joe Colombo (1930-1971) went down in history as the "designer of the future". His creations are permeated by an optimistic vision of progress and aim at creating a radically new way of understanding the home environment. The result was a pioneering interest in innovative materials such as plastic, at the time used in the field of furniture only for experimental projects, and a very modern attention to the theme of modularity, often taken to the extreme as in the Visiona 1 installation designed for Bayer. in which every room of the house is rethought in science fiction as a "functional station". Born in Milan, he dedicated his youth to art and painting, joining the Nuclear Art movement. He only became interested in design when he was thirty and had only one decade to devote to the discipline, before his sudden and premature death from cardiac arrest. But that decade was the 1960s, a period of swirling changes, and his creations set the tone for an era: armchairs like the Elda (now re-proposed by Longhi) or the Tube Chair (designed for Flexform and re-edited by Cappellini) in the collections of all the most important design museums around the world, as well as the Minikitchen designed for Boffi, the vast collection of lamps produced by Oluce, and the fruits of its collaborations with brands such as Kartell and Zanotta. Among the products that today re-edit his creations there are also B-Line, Amini, Karakter and many others.Read more
