Design - The Arco Lamp
Synopsis
The Arco Floor lamp designed in 1962 by the Castiglioni brothers has lived through times without becoming old-fashioned.
Its typical arch, white Carrara marble base and sparkling aluminium globe made it a must-have object in contemporary design.
Inspired by the essential formal component of the Arco, that lies in the arch, round, sphere, and circle, the film shows how an apparently so simple object became an archetype.
