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.
