Martinelli Luce and the famous Parisian institution launch a special version of the Pipistrello lamp, designed by Gae Aulenti in 1965, the same architect who took part in transforming the Gare d’Orsay station into a museum. A detail of the museum, translated onto the surface of an icon
This special edition of the Pipistrello lamp features a finish inspired by a distinctive architectural detail of the interiors of the Musée d’Orsay.

It indeed echoes the tone of the museum’s nave vault: a soft, tactile green. A subtle and recognizable reference is born, where architecture is translated into an object without anything decorative in the easy sense of the term, but becomes the transposition of a fragment of atmosphere and history.

DIMENSIONS:
Height: 50-62 cm
Base diameter: 25 cm
Diffuser diameter: 40 cm

Questa edizione speciale della lampada Pipistrello presenta una finitura ispirata a un dettaglio architettonico distintivo degli interni del musée d’Orsay.

Essa riprende infatti la tonalità della volta della navata del museo: un verde morbido e materico. Ne nasce un rimando sottile e riconoscibile, dove l’architettura si traduce in oggetto senza avere nulla di decorativo nel senso facile del termine, ma diventa la trasposizione di un frammento d’atmosfera e di una storia.
