AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Icon of Italian design from the seventies, Ariette 2 is a lamp designed by Tobia Scarpa for Flos in 1973, characterized by a minimalist form and an original diffuser in synthetic fabric.
The geometric structure, deliberately minimal, is softened by the fabric that wraps and diffuses the light, creating a warm, uniform and evocative illumination. A project that demonstrates Scarpa's particular attention to material experimentation and to the search for a balance between functionality and sculptural presence.
Ariette 2 can be installed either on the wall or on the ceiling. Its wide surface and the distinctive structure confer the lamp a strong architectural presence, while maintaining that light and refined aesthetic that has made the project an icon of Italian design.
A representative piece of Tobia Scarpa and Flos's production, perfect for enthusiasts of Italian design, retro, and author lighting.
