by Castiglioni from Flos
viscontea pendant lamp
Design Achille & Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, 1960
White powder coated internal steel structure, sprayed resin
Made in Italy by Flos
An impressive and 'out of this world' design, Viscontea provides a warm glow and stylish appeal to any environment. The Viscontea cocoon lamp features a white, powder-coated metal frame which is then sprayed with a unique 'cocoon' resin to create the diffuser. It is then protected by a transparent finish. This technique and use of material was first popularized by George Nelson and his 'Bubble' lamps.
Achille Castiglioni's imaginative forms and simplistic designs have made him one of the most influential figures in Italian design.

Castiglioni
Iconic Italian designer Achille Castiglioni was often inspired by common objects and made use of ordinary materials to create a maximal effect. Best known for his designs for Flos Lighting such as Taccia, Arco and Snoopy.
Design and innovation have been the two main pillars of Flos lighting since 1962. Taking care of the Planet and inhabitants through beautiful and sustainable lighting is a third new pillar.
