V/agra Lamp

Yes baby, turn me on and I will take any kind of shape. Turn me off, and I will be down, getting my default boring shape. Cool design by Romolo Stanco. Full description follows.

Their design -passing over any kind of technical ostentation — is inspired by the dynamic fluency of the processes of cellular separation and, fed also by the sensation of “life” aroused by the item, led to the development of an embryonic shape that hangs down because of the force of gravity, turned off and lifeless like a proboscis unable to support its own weight, like a drop of fluid, crystallized just before reaching the ground.

But, as soon as it’s switched on — like a kind of magic — the lamp becomes animated, as it was fed by a spark of life.

It starts to move in space, it rises up, making a fool of the force of gravity; lighting up, it takes shape and — as long as it’s left on — it remains steady, strong and firm, twisted in the air as it was supported by a mysterious force.

Then, when it’s switched off, slowly it lets itself go down, yielding to its own weight, and falls asleep waiting for a new flash of life.
