Tati Lamp
Italian architect Ferruccio Laviani’s latest project for furniture manufacturer Kartell, the ‘Tati’ lamp, is unique in its design and shape. Greatly resembling a mini flat-screen television, the Tati lamp is made out of a fluorescent circlet which is contained inside the TV-like box, and comes in four different variations, which set different moods. Its base, unlike in conventional table and floor lamps, is a neat glassy cuboid supporting the lamp, with the wiring in place. Along with his other creation designed for Kartell, the ‘Bloom’ lamp, Laviani will be exhibiting his designs for public viewing at Milan Design Week 2009.
