ceiling lamp
WINS THE SILVER
A’DESIGN AWARDS & COMPETITION
2022
The main idea behind this design was to bring the art of literature into the spotlight, to take on one of my passions and create a dialog between design, light, and my vision.

We are glad to announce that our lamp LORCA achieved the Silver award of the A’Design Award & Competition, Italy 2022 for Lighting Products and Lighting Projects Design Category.
LORCA brings a sculptural note to any space. Through poetry the designer wanted to create a dialogue, between the words, the forms, the textures and the spectator.
“All books provide us with, are, strictly speaking, black letters on white pages; yet we do not experience the fictional world as an assembly of printed characters. Instead, reading is a quasi-sensuous experience, making readers the protagonists before their inner eyes. “ […]
“We become someone else when reading; we are transported to new worlds where we lead new lives.”

The poem of Federico Garcia Lorca embraces the verticality of this lamp. Federico García Lorca (1898-1936) is one of the most important Spanish poets and playwrights of the 20th century. García Lorca was born on June 5, 1898 in Fuente Vaqueros, Granada. He was one of the vertices of the surrealist triangle formed by him, Salvador Dalí and Luis Buñuel, attracted by the meaning of the surrealist manifesto. García Lorca achieved international recognition as an emblematic member of the Generation of ’27. He was executed by nationalist forces during the Spanish Civil War.
