Alfredo Bianchi, Selene Small Table Lamp, 1970s

About the Item

This lamp is characteristic of the Space Age Design. During the 1960s-1980s, designers and architects developed projects and concepts meant to introduce the futur into the present. Designs from this period radiated colour, energy and an aesthetic that looked towards the future. This exciting era of change saw a the proliferation of styles and materials, as artists and designers sought new ways to push boundaries and challenge tradition. In particular, the space and nuclear ages saw the emergence of futuristic new forms inspired by scientific developments and historical events, echoed in pieces like the Selene Lamp. The accompanying rise of consumer culture saw designers seek to integrate beauty and functionality with accessibility; to bring art and design into everyday life. This resulted in a trend for joyful objects that were simple yet elegant.
