About Angela Ardisson

Angela Ardisson is an Italian artist specializing in product design. She has been pursuing her creative and design activity since 1987, exploring the boundless universe of matter. Metals, since 1994, have been the key factor of the most creative moments of her career: brass, iron, bronze, silver and copper melted together and mixed with blown glass. The passion for multi-disciplinary design defines her artistic eclecticism. She has taken part in the Milan Design Week/Fuori Salone every year since 1989, often joining more events at the same time. Yesterday as today, the ...Read More

Oxygen Spheres, Ceiling Installation by Different Lamps by Angela Ardisson
Located in Milano, IT
The Oxygen Spheres are a collection of light and graceful suspension lamps.Their structure is carefully wrapped with a metallic fabric, a work of high craftmanship. These lamps are extremely light even in their largest versions and are therefore suitable for setting up rooms with plasterboard false ceilings, which cannot support weights. Their metal frames are made of a very thin wire, welded together with great skill to become a strong structure and support for the metal fabric. In order to obtain such perfect spherical shapes, regardless of the hostile and sharp metal fabric covering them, the type of work carried out recalls the haute couture processes and requires the greatest attention for the smallest details. The result of this working process is a sophisticated product with a soft and round volume. The light flooding from the heart of the Oxygen lamps is crossed exclusively by the thin metal veil, which allows an excellent intensity (dimmable in multiple compositions), adding transparency and lightness to day light environments and creating detailed shadows even in the absence of electric light. The lightning element inside is cocooned in a transparent glass cylinder. Available also in different tones of bronze: an elegant and calm palette ranging from brass tone to dark bronze. The fabric of these lamps is coated with layers of precious metals like gold, silver and bronze, the alchemic process being the focus of Angela Ardisson’s entire work. Oxygen lamps are perfect for lightning up the living areas, spacious entry halls, stairwells on more levels. In their smallest combination they are ideal to light up the dinner table. This precious and thick metallic coating triggers the most unexpected colour effects whenever the layers meet. Oxygen bespoke lamps...

Kepler K15T, Brass and Blown Glass Table Lamp by Angela Ardisson
Located in Milano, IT
The starting point of Angela Ardisson’s creative process for the new collection is a single and precise shape: the sphere. The study of its geometric volume and a rational composition of all interlocking elements has guided her towards a very clean design. No technical or mechanical disturbance interferes with the purity of the shape. That’s why she decided to avoid welding and went instead for very precise turnings, to assemble all the pieces. In the creation of the Kepler collection, I had the honor to gather the most skilled Italian artisans using highly advanced cutting technologies (laser-cut and water-jet) but also the more traditional glass hand-blowing and twisting processes. The only and final supervisor during all work phases was the caliper and all measures were to the tenth. The glass is hand-twisted with fire and it spreads its warm light right from the heart of the lamp. The polished brass surfaces are filtered by the transparency of the glass layer, with a reciprocal exchange of uninterrupted light reflection effects. The metal of the Kepler lamps goes through several modification phases, which I personally carried out. She can obtain unique coats and textures reveiling themselves on the shiny brass surface, like in a vintage mirror. The symbol of this collection is “the reflection” and Angela Ardisson is searching for its purest form through her modern alchemical approach. The K30 and K50 floor models, in spite of the volume and weight of the materials used, are extremely light, both in terms of their visual size and specific weight. These floor lamps will enrich the living areas and relax points in the house with elegant light reflections and a touch of personal elegance. All models of Kepler floor and ceiling lamps...

Elda, Brass and Glass Ceiling Lamp by Angela Ardisson
Located in Milano, IT
The suspension lamp Elda was Angela Ardisson’s first glass lamp, born as a single piece in 2017. The name of this light project is a tribute to her maternal grand- mother, Elda Garrisi, who lived between the 30s and 80s. She was elegant and charming and had a passion for the Art Deco furniture and ornaments, from which this lamp draws inspiration.? Resembling the Venetian Murrine, Elda’s hand-twisted glass pole encapsulates an elongated brass section containing a LED light source. Thanks to these stratifications, Elda’s brass looks like melted gold from which light transpires. A dimmable special liquid light, strong but shoots in the same time by the color of the same light I use for it. Its suspended pole has a reclining junction. With its 3 cm of diameter, the Elda suspension lamp can be described as a very thin spear of light, and, among all of Angela Ardisson’s lamps, it is certainly the most versatile for any interior project. The process of hand-twisting the glass around itself undoubtedly enhances the charming elegance of this lamp. Thanks to its aesthetic minimalism and technical light features, the Elda lamp coexists with the most diverse interior architectures. This hanging lamp also comes in a wall version, both vertical and horizontal. Elda suspended lamp is well suited to light up tables...
