Shine a Light: Foscarini’s GREGG Lamp (+ video!)

Posted on 15 June 2010 by anc

Architecture and design duo Ludovica and Roberto Palomba‘s new floor-style GREGG lamp for Foscarini is the latest addition to the very popular series of organically-inspired lighting. Complementing the existing table, wall, ceiling and suspension versions, the GREGG floor lamp is made of an incandescent mass of blown glass transformed into an elegant, asymmetric bubble, closer to something we might find in nature than a machine-shaped geometric form. The elegant movement of the stem links the base to the blown glass diffuser, and the egg-like shape morphs depending on the observer’s point of view.

Check out the images and video below to learn more about Ludovica and Roberto Palomba’s inspiration behind the GREGG series.
