Half century of modern lamps

lighting components as essential elements of interior
design and decoration, promoted by the Italian Ministry

of Commerce and Italian Association of Designers. |

Opere di Luce is a collection
of lamps, with models that range from 1931 to 2005, including
several winning pieces from the Compasso d'Oro, the most
prestigious European industrial design award. |

During the varnishing, in
the heart of the Soho district at 160 Wooster Street,
everything will be illuminated, included the catering
cups: drinks will be of light water, una luce … da
bere. |

The collection has been crated
by innovative minds such as Philippe Starck,
Gae Aulenti, Renzo Piano, Max Ingrand,
Michele De Lucchi, Achille e Pier Giacomo
Castiglioni and Joe Colombo in collaboration
with renowned Italian manufacturers such as Artemide,
Flos, Fontana Arte; which are all located
in Lombardy (northern Italy). |
