Minimalistic Semisferma Wall or Ceiling Light by Elio Martinelli, 1970s

About the Item

Semisfera is a beautiful wall or ceiling light designed by Italian designer Elio Martinelli in the 1970s. The name "Semisfera" means "semi-sphere" in Italian, and the design is inspired by the shape of a hemisphere. The light is made from a single piece of white acrylic, which has been heated and molded into its distinctive shape. The material is lightweight and durable, and it creates a diffused light that is both bright and soft. Semisfera has a simple, yet elegant design that allows it to blend seamlessly into a variety of interiors. It is versatile enough to be used in both residential and commercial settings, and it is often used to create a subtle yet impactful statement in modern and minimalist interiors. Like La Bolla, Semisfera is also included in the permanent collections of several museums around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Triennale Design Museum in Milan. Overall, Semisfera is a beautiful and timeless piece of design that combines functionality and elegance. Whether used as a focal point or as a subtle accent, it is sure to create a beautiful and inviting atmosphere in any space.
