They are sure to grace your homes, restaurants or hospitality establishments. With these new designs, your place is more elegant, more charming, more artistic.

Behive

Nature is one of the sources of inspiration for behive, a table lamp which, as the name suggests,
Recalls the shape of a beehive. Its portly, sensual and at the same time the stylish shape was created by an overlapping sequence of rings, each of a larger diameter, starting at the small base, from which the lamp appears to take off.

Charming and magical when it is on, behive turns into a poetic, domestic sculpture when it is turned off, revealing its dual, reversible nature: white turns black, light becomes shadow. This product stirs a unique emotion, perfect to distinguish an important, intimate setting, or to top a cabinet, a table or even the floor.

Birdie

The slim stem is like the trunk of a tree. Its shade, a reinterpretation of the classic reading lamp, while the branch, as if ready for a “birdie” to alight, beckons your touch, turning it on or off.

These three elements spontaneously coalesce to give life to a friendly, harmonious and easy to use lamp affording many installation possibilities and blending easily with different styles,  urniture and tastes. Birdie, light in scale with a smooth, seamless structure, is both familiar and boldly new.

Chouchin

This new family of suspended lamps takes its name from traditional japanese paper and amboo
Lanterns used as light and bright signs outside restaurants and bars, or as lucky charms outside homes. Their typical shapes have been reinterpreted in a pure contemporary style, using an  ge-old material: blown glass that has been painted on the inside (with exception of the lower rim) to make it completely opaque and glossy from the outside. The result combines a warm colouring, textured and precious, with a luminous collar that projects an intense, direct beam
Of light downwards.

Maki

Take two sheets of paper and roll them up together, creating something that resembles a seashell or a flower. A simple, instinctive and almost infantile gesture, this is a shape that tells
A story-a simple and intuitive object both poetic and beguiling.

The side glare is filtered by the edges of the rolled-up metallic sheets, creating a dynamic yet soft effect while light is also cast directly down, as a soft spot beam. This dual luminous effect allows maki to be charming all alone or in linear compositions to illuminate counters and peninsulas. The white or pale grey color choice enhances the pureness of maki’s inspiration; its lightness and poetic appeal is a luminous idea in any domestic or communal setting.

Tress stilo

The seduction of a woman’s tresses was the initial inspiration for the tress family of lamps. This design dream-come-true by foscarini was achieved through the development of a completely original technological process, involving a fibreglass and resin tape woven with orderly casualness to become the structure and aesthetics of the lamp. The same concept and technology are applied in this new model, to explore brand new uses and settings.

Elongated, thin and slender, tress stilo like an exclamation mark or a tribal object has a strong and suave graphic design. In contrast to the highly technological innovation that went into its development. Tress stilo’s shape recalls an artisanal, hand-made object. The elongated  ilhouette is ideal to personalize the corner of a room, the space between a sofa and an armchair or any other setting where a compact, yet visually strong lamp is required.

Planet

Is it an unknown moon, an astronaut's helmet, the external shell of a creature from another dimension? Planet is most certainly not your traditional lamp, but rather an unconventional illuminating object: another successful result of foscarini’s research activities.

The initial challenge was to create a fabric lamp that was completely empty and without an inner frame. The idea was to create a load-bearing seam, which would be simultaneously structural and decorative. Inspiration came from a system devised for the "smart clothing" used by astronauts, where external embroidery stitched with a special yarn allows the suit to
Adhere to the body, retaining total flexibility and freedom of movement, even in zero gravity.

Tivu

These days, television - like lighting – has completely changed shape, meaning and function: tivu is inspired by the traditional tv screen; it is a lamp dedicated to the furnishing aesthetics and functional requirements of modern life.

The silhouette of the lamp, apart from being a charming feature in itself,  offers the advantage of being a completely enclosed presence that is noticed but not imposing. The rectangular body of the lamp, with rounded corners, is available in two different sizes in either a bold black
Or more neutral and recessive white. The light source is completely screened by a semi-transparent element through which light is diffused onto the wall and into the room.
