The talented Ferruccio Laviani has created the Taj lamp for Kartell, a sleek and sculptural light feature. Its simple lines give it an elegant and understated look, ensuring it looks right at home when placed on items of furniture and desks. In addition, its small dimensions save space on work surfaces. It may be a table lamp, but Taj has been designed to reject the restrictions of articulation, mechanics, and structure in several places, instead boasting a simple shape that facilitates the function for which it was designed. Made of polycarbonate, the futuristic Taj lamp makes its presence known by providing diffused light, which is intense yet doesn't dazzle when switched on, as well as when it is switched off thanks to its fluid and organic design, like a long curved stem, exuding lightness. An intelligent lighting solution, it incorporates energy-saving LED technology, providing maximal optimisation and reduction of light emitted. It also represents a real challenge in terms of technological know-how for Kartell. Taj is available in gloss white and gloss black.
Born in Cremona, Italy, in 1960, Ferruccio Laviani graduated in architecture from the Milan Polytechnic. Ferruccio Laviani began his career working for designer Michele De Lucchi, before opening his own studio in 1991. At the same time, he also became artistic director of Kartell, a brand for which he designed the Bourgie, Take and Cindy lamps, each of which has become a classic for the Italian manufacturer. He works with other major brands such as Foscarini, Moroso and Flos to create retail spaces. He also organised the exhibition "Technique Discrètes: le design du mobilier italien 1980-1990" at the Louvre in Paris. Art director, industrial designer and space designer, Ferruccio Laviani is one of the most popular contemporary designers today.
