Pallucco - Bucky Piantana
Any child who has looked up at the sky, chasing after kites, cannot help but be fascinated by the lamp designed by the studio Lagranja.
Bucky is just like a kite which appears from nowhere, light as a feather, twisting and turning, lit up by the white, orange and purple reflections of the filters placed at the ends of its diffusers.
Bucky is a minimal yet surprisingly rigid composition, the only definition being the soft touch cable which is pulled tight, giving it shape and structure. As well as carrying the electric current, the wire also provides support for the three blown glass rods, hanging like an acrobat from a rope.
Bucky also pays tribute to Richard Buckminster "Bucky" Fuller, the visionary American architect and designer who was the first to experiment with tensile structures, which have been used to create this lampshade.
Pendant (floor lamp and table lamp) consisting of three 700 mm milk white blown glass rods. The orange and purple versions are fitted with two coloured glass filters in each rod.
Connecting wire in white silicone.
The lamp is fitted with six energy saving 60 W halogen light bulbs (two for each rod) with a G9 base.

VONDOM: REST
Inspiring from the ORIGAMI, Japanese art based in the folding paper in order to get different forms and in the thinking line “Less is more”.
The composition is formed by an armchair, sofa, and table, of which modular structure allows you to adapt them freely to your needs in every space.
The manufacture technique is the rotomoulding, focused on a technology process that guarantees the maximum quality taking care of every detail.
REST shows the essence from its creators always loyal to elegance, beauty and exclusivity as the total adaption to customers.
From geometrical defined forms, along with the dynamic, elegant and lightness features, a new collection that offers the maximum comfort to its users and is integrated perfectly in the avant-garde architecture is born, thanks to its contemporary design as a principle from studio A-cero.

The new white - Nest
Nest love the simple, natural and elegant look created by combining white lacquer, high gloss, glass with textured wood for a fresh, sophisticated and versatile look.
The Magis Steelwood beech and painted steel chair by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec sums up this look perfectly.
For a dining table that will never date, look no further than the Tom Dixon Slab natural oak table.
Add some drama to the look without distracting from it with the Kartell white Bourgie table lamp, which looks great on the E15 Alex side tables in oiled European oak.
Bring in some accessories by introducing the Sonodesign Gurgen clock or how about creating movement with the Normann swing vase in white.
The Droog Soft suspension lamp is simplicity at its best and look fantastic hung together in clusters.
For even more inspirational ideas for the home and garden and 1000’s of products to search and buy, visit www.nest.co.uk or pop into their new showroom in Sheffield.

GIRO with shade
Reading means concentrating while at the same time relaxing. This is why this activity calls for a balanced, well-distributed light, but one with just the right degree of intensity, to highlight the white of the page without being hard on the eye. This is just the impeccable balance achieved by the GIRO lamp with its opaque shade, fitted with a double diffuser to ensure superior light distribution.
