Tolomeo with Shade Task Lamp by Michele de Lucchi for Artemide
Designed for Artemide by Michele De Lucchi with Giancarlo Fassina in 1987, the Tolomeo was an immediate bestseller, consolidating a working relationship that continues to this day. Inspired by traditional balanced arm lamps like the famous Naska Loris, his challenge was to combine an iconic and “domestic” form with innovative technologies and materials, adapting it to a wide variety of uses and settings. Today it is a well-known symbol of the modern object, commonly seen in houses, offices and hotels, on the desks of architects and on photographic and even film sets.
An extension to the iconic Tolomeo family, Tolomeo Mega features the same arm balancing system as the Tolomeo table lamp combined with a selection of parchment or fabric shades, creating its own sub-family.
