DesignBeing a tribute to the incandescent lamp, the Lampadina LED by Flos is a real eye-catcher. The Flos Lampadina LED looks almost as if it is still waiting for the lampshade. In fact, it is basically made of a partially sandblasted LED globe lamp that is screwed into a socket made of Bakelite. The high-quality base of the Lampadina LED by Flos is made of fine aluminium. A practical feature: this base also serves as a cable rewind. The unusual table lamp was created in 1972 by the designer legend Achille Castiglioni. The Italian designer was known for the playful means of misappropriation and the pursuit of reduced shaping. According to Castiglioni, functionality is more important that aesthetics, however, he never neglected the elegance of his design objects – as can be clearly seen when taking a look at the Lampadina LED by Flos. He worked according to this principle into old age. The following quotation accurately reflects the philosophy of this designer icon: "So sophisticated and so simple – I like it!"
