About Flatiron Lampe

Achille Castiglioni était convaincu que le designer devait supprimer, supprimer, supprimer et finalement trouver l'aspect essentiel du design. Bruno Munari avait l'habitude de dire que compliquer les choses est facile, alors que simplifier les choses est très difficile. Flatiron naît de la synthèse de ces deux références. Une source lumineuse enchâssée dans un corps fait d'une simple feuille de métal avec un seul pli. Le minimum d'éléments pour un produit d'une grande présence, une collection de lampes caractérisée par un design aussi essentiel qu'efficace.

Production Technology: Lasercut metal sheet with a single fold for the structure. Dimmerable LED strip as a light source.
Design Challenge: Bruno Munari once said that to complicate things is easy, while to simplify things is very hard. Achille Castiglioni was convinced that the designer should delete, delete, delete and at the end find the core aspect of the design. Flatiron comes from the combination of this two references. A simple metal sheet with just one fold that encases the light source. The challenge has been to reduce the project to the minimum amount of elements.
Research: Starting from a deep research on floor lamps, we focused then on understanding which could be the right kind of light source. Because the aim of this product is not to be a technical lamp, but to be an decorative ambient lamp, the diffused light is the right choice and the shape of the structure itself orientates the beam. We invested a lot of time in the selection of the right light source because we wanted it to be warm and dimmerable.
Inspiration: The combination of the world of origami and the world of architecture is what is at the base of Flatiron family.
The name itself has two meaning. First is a reference to the famous building in Manhattan with a triangular shape. Than explains how it is made, starting from a simple flat sheet of iron.
Project Duration: Development of the project took 4 months and took place in Milan
Operation Flow: Simply plug the lamp, press the dimmer and you can turn on or off the lamp and dimm the intensity of light
