About the Item

Lamp in cut and thermoformed Pespex, with plates and fittings in polished steel and knobs in turned nylon. The Gherpe lamp does not belong to the traditional types of table lighting fixtures, both for its shape, similar to the shell of a marine creature, and for the materials for industrial use, such as methacrylate. It represents one of the first examples of an interactive lighting body which, thanks to the relationship with the user, is able to change shades: from white light to illuminate to colored light to transform the emotional perception of an environment.
