Light Air

The Kartell table lamp Light Air by Eugeni Quitllet is principally defined by the unconventional interaction of different forms - and the way they harmonise to create a product which formally varies greatly from the conventional lamp. Instead of an ordinary lamp base and a conventional shade, this Kartell table lamp consists of a rectangular transparent or coloured thermoplastic technopolymer frame, in which a cone-shaped parabolic reflector is fixed: thus optically the impression is of a shade floating. Inside the shade of the Kartell Light Air there is a pleated fabric, which creates a pleasant light interplay. The intelligent mix of materials and colours gives the Kartell Light Air its extravagant appearance and also helps the lamp create its uniquely magical atmosphere, whether in the living room or as bedside table. A specialist in the processing of high-quality plastic objects, the Italian furniture manufacturer Kartell has established a global reputation as leader in the field; a reputation underscored through the firms cooperations with Light Air designer Eugeni Quitllet. A designer who has realised numerous Kartell classics.
