model 265 wall light
Design Paolo Rizzatto, 1973
Steel and cast iron
Made in Italy by Flos
Originally designed in 1973, Flos introduces a new, colorful edition of 265, a suspended wall lamp designed by Paolo Rizzatto. Almost fifty years, the iconic wall lamp is re-introduced in new colors celebrating the architect's original idea. This new version, for which the word Chromatica has been added to the name, sees color as a design tool rather than a mere decorative element. The palette, consisting of three primary colors, thus becomes the instrument that clarifies each lamp's function. Rizzatto's original design envisaged an association between each element of the 265 and a primary color according to its function: The hat, the most important element, was red. The weight was yellow. The connecting arm was blue.
A towering wall lamp of scopious proportions. Model 265 is minimalist with clean lines, impressively versatile and elegant. Provides direct light from a counterbalanced steel stem braced to the wall by a steel bracket. Model 265 is extremely adjustable from the head, arm and bracket.
Seeming to defy gravity, the 265 wall lamp by designer Paolo Rizzatto is in a category all its own. Multi-angle rotatable head and long, adjustable swing arm wall lamp.The lamp head, which rotates 360 degrees so that it can be aimed in any direction, provides a clean, direct light. The body is painted steel, with an adjustable arm and reflector. There is a chrome-plated brass reflector support. The counterweight is tapered cast iron. There is an on/off switch on the socket holder, and a plug in power cord measuring 80 inches.
Paolo Rizzatto has an extensive background working with various manufacturers, in the field of industrial design, and teaching through numerous Universities. His projects have been presented at seminars and exhibitions of architecture and design, and included in the permanent collections of a number of foundations and museums.
