About the Item

Sirio halogen floor lamp designed by Kazuhide Takahama and produced by Sirrah in 1977. The lamp has a matt white lacquered structure, an adjustable reflector and a striking On/Off switch, which doubles as a dimmer. This lamp is described in Giuliana Gramigna's Repertorio del Design Italiano 1950-2000 on page 251 (1977). The lamp is in very good vintage condition. Takahama, born in 1930, he studied architecture in Tokyo and after graduating he joined the studio of Kazuo Fujioka. In 1957 he came to Italy to oversee the architectural layout of the pavilion with which Japan participated for the first time at the XI Triennale di Milano, where he met the designer and entrepreneur Dino Gavina (1922-2007) with whom he undertook a professional collaboration that it would last a lifetime. Consequently in 1964 he moved to Bologna and went to work as a designer of furniture and lamps in the San Lazzaro factory. Sirrah was born in Imola in 1968 taking its name from a star in the constellation Andromeda. He made his debut in 1968 at the Triennale presenting a series of lamps designed by the Albini-Helg-Piva studio. From this date, industrial production began while maintaining the artisan characteristics of the products unchanged: refinement, extreme attention to detail. In 1973 the collaboration with Takahama introduces the use of new materials: the Japanese designer begins to use a heat-resistant, elastic and washable fabric with which he creates various lamps. In the 1990s, after the acquisition of Sirrah by iGuzzini Illuminazione (1994), attention shifted decisively towards the production of lighting fixtures for specific market sectors. Since June 2004 Sirrah has been incorporated, through a merger, into iGuzzini Illuminazione.
