About the Item
Table lamp by Nathalie du Pasquier and George Sowden, for the series “Objects for the Electronic Age”.
Nathalie du Pasquier & George Sowden, founding members of the Memphis-Milano group collaborated together to create a set of limited edition, small batch production objects, ranging from clocks, fruit bowls to table lamps. Although all objects principally served a purpose, clearly the intention was to let function follow form, and no so much the banality of day-to-day use.
The design of this table lamp is a perfect reflection of the 1980s Memphis-Milano style, using bold colors, bold forms, and where functionality is put after its form.
This table lamp from the Objects for the Electronic Age is extremely rare, and makes a real collectors’ item.

Ettore Sottsass was born in Innsbruck in 1917. In 1939 he graduated in architecture at the Politecnico di Torino. One of the most influential and important figures of the last century. As an Architect and Designer, he has participated in all radical movements whether created from the 1970s and 1980s. In 1981 he founded the Memphis group, a group that has radically changed the scenario of Italian and world design. Honored with numerous international awards, was winner of the Golden Compass in 1959. He designed the first laptop "Valentina" by Olivetti. He died in 2007 at the age of 90 years.
Memphis Milano is the great cultural phenomenon of the 1980s that revolutionized creative and commercial logics in design. Born from the idea of Ettore Sottsass and a group of young designers and architects, in Milan, coupled in the years by famous designers from the international scene, Memphis turned upside down all of the existing parameters on living. Ettore Sottsass as the backbone of the group, design gained a new concept and expression through new shapes, materials and patterns, expanding the creative limits of the industry. Memphis became a symbol of New Design. Its influence is still clear in various sectors of production and beyond.
