About the Item

Angelo Mangiarotti, 1988 Aida For Karakter This lamp is wired for Europe, if used in US or any other country the client will need to convert it. Esteemed for his researched and controlled approach to materials, Italian architect, sculptor and designer Angelo Mangiarotti created the almost gravity-defying Aida lamp with its visual disconnect between the base and shade and a pleasing ambient light. Referencing principles of his hailed architecture, where slim, elegant pillars support large and heavy ceilings in an almost impossible lift, Mangiarotti conceived Aida’s beautifully poised silhouette. "What is drawing for you? “Everything. If I speak I draw, if I draw I speak." An avowed proponent of anonymous design, Angelo Mangiarotti believed in making objects that “last longer than us”, to that end espousing “simple principles, elementary concepts and primary materials”. The fundamental starting point of any object was its usefulness, he said, but there were many more strands at play than mere function. The materiality, the shape, and above all the process, a conceptual way of thinking that applied to any or all projects irrespective of size or purpose.

Mangiarotti is quoted to have said, ”Happiness comes from honesty”. A quote that hints to his overall design approach rooted in the firm belief that architecture was a practical discipline and that industrial design was an expression of fine craftsmanship. He wanted each individual material to be respected and to be used in an appropriate and honest way. Beyond his many architectural feats, Mangiarotti’s body of work boasts a wide array of creative projects from sculpture, to products and lighting. Over the course of his career, he held lecturing positions at a number of distinguished design and architecture schools in Italy and abroad, he won numerous awards in both design and architecture, and his work has been included in exhibitions and collections at some of the world’s leading art and design institutions such as Centre Pompidou in Paris, Triennale Design Museum in Milan and Gallery MA in Tokyo.
