De-Lux A8 Floor Lamp by Gio Ponti

This floor lamp was created from archival drawings designed by Gio Ponti, who envisioned a series of modular lighting fixtures that now are part of the series De-Lux, a collection of strong visual impact that combines clean lines and modern materials. The structure of this floor lamp is in aluminum with a finish in silver and comprises a thin element that stems up from a small conical shape in an elongated cone that becomes the shade. With its sense of movement and minimalist shape, this piece can be a striking sculpture when off and a superb light source when on.
