New Collection from Foscarini

Foscarini have released a brand new collection of lighting solutions which exhibit new dimesnsions in sculptural forms. Each offer a spectrum of illumination possibilities from soft and diffused to intense and precise. This is particularly visible in the Magneto Desk and Floor Lamp, the diffuser and structure joined only by an electrical cable and magnetic force. Through the use of a spherical magnet, the diffuser can balance in a wide range of angles and positions - free to travel up and down the stem which is embossed with rounded impressions.  The Solar Floor Light was inspired by the subdued glow experienced during sunrise and sunset, the rounded shape enticing you to sit around its circumference - perfect for socialising. The atmospheric illuminations can be adjusted with a slight tilt and is available in indoor and outdoor options.

However the Birdie range, designed by Ludovica & Roberto Palomba, is where Foscarini have excelled through simple and organic forms to create a sophisticated collection of table, wall, ceiling and floor lights. Each are instantly recognisable via the classic shade and offshoot growing from the stem - beckoning a bird to perch upon it. The Birdie Ceiling Light is a contemporary chandelier (pictured), unlike any other ceiling light seen before and is available in a range of configurations ranging from one shade to three, six and nine for an awe-inspiring spectacle.
