Artemide
Falkland Pendant Light
Price starting from € 235,00*
*Price valid for the version Falkland 53 in ø 40 x H.53 cm with frame in grey aluminium and shade in standard fabric – bulb excluded (cod.DS2040RIF + DS2040DCRC).
A suspension lamp of extreme grace and beauty, capable of expressing a unique personality. From the creative genius of Bruno Munari, Falkland consists of a white tubular elastic mesh diffuser stretched over a natural aluminum structure. The shape of Falkland is born from the tension of the filanca tube and from the weight of some metal rings that create a spontaneous shape, generated only by the tension of the internal forces that compose it. A single bulb and an aluminum reflector echoes the shape of the fabric's curves. The concept of Falkland is based on the principles of efficiency and simplicity, often referable to oriental art which it seems to be eyeing.

Artemide is one of the most prestigious names of the Italian design: the company has in fact left an indelible impact on the lighting sector. Artemide lamps are often courageous and experimental, but also incredibly practical. The philosophy of Artemide follows the principle of the "Human Light", according to which every lighting project must focus on the human being and his needs. Another peculiarity of the brand is the incessant tendency to innovation, so much that over 60 people are employed in its own Research & Development center.Read more
Designed by
Bruno Munari
Bruno Munari (1907-1998) was not only a figure of capital importance in the history of Italian design, but he can rightly be defined as one of the central personalities of Italian culture of the twentieth century. A century that he has gone through entirely, ranging from the most diverse disciplines, since the beginning in the 1920s as a leading painter of the Milanese Futurist scene. Instead, his famous Macchine Inutili, very light suspended sculptures, and the growing interest in advertising graphics and photography date back to the 1930s. In the postwar period, together with Gillo Dorfles, Gianni Monnet and Atanasio Soldati, he was one of the founders of the MAC (Movimento Arte Concreta) which revolutionized the canons of abstractionism in the arts, and also intensified his collaborations with large companies in the field of communication and advertising, giving life to memorable collaborations with brands such as Olivetti, Campari and IBM. His contribution to the world of editorial graphics is particularly significant, both through the care of the image of entire series for Einaudi and with his well-known covers (very famous for Domus magazine). He was also a prolific author of books, often intended for children: the themes of pedagogy and play have always been central to his entire production, also pushing him to numerous experiments towards toy design. In addition to his theoretical reflections, the fruits of his long collaboration with the Danese Milano brand (later acquired by Artemide) played a great role in the history of design. Some of his famous creations have also been re-edited by Porro, Zanotta and Rexite. He has been awarded the Compasso d'Oro three times (1954, 1955, 1979).Read more
