Italian designers Lucidi and Pevere have designed a funnel-shaped lamp made of concrete for the Italian brand Foscarini. The pendant light is named Aplomb and appears to have a rough surface but a transparent layer gives it a smooth finish. The product also comes in white and brown. The designers tell us more about the lamp:
- The purpose was to realize a small suspension lamp which could express a self material feature in opposition to impersonal and cold minimalism. We chose the cement because it is poor, very expressive and changeable for its own nature. It took approximately two years to get the right thickness ready – in some areas it becomes like real skin – and to find the craftsmen able to do this jump from architecture to design.
