Marc Sadler
An iconic floor lamp, which won the ADI Compasso d’Oro Award together with the Tite suspension lamp, for its innovative mix of fibreglass and carbon thread or Kevlar®, technology which is used to make fishing rods and golf clubs, introduced by Foscarini for the first time in the lighting industry.
Marc Sadler
“A design project that thinks outside the box, exploring the full potential of a material and of a technology. It took two years of tiring yet exciting experimentation to make it”.
