Castore 42 Pendant Light
by Huub Ubbens, Michele De Lucchi from ArtemideVariations
The Castore 42 Pendant Light from Artemide showcases gentle curves with a minimalist aesthetic that allows it to blend in with a wider variety of decors than more ostentatious lights. Light shines through both the spherical, hand-blown glass diffuser and the bottom of the polycarbonate-covered steel stem where it joins with the round shade. To make the transition from the strong diffuser to the blind lamp structure area gentle, the globe-shaped diffuser is enhanced with a removable fitting. A length of stainless steel cord that can be cut on site is included from which to hand the light.
Artemide has a 3-word design philosophy, "the human light," that has guided them since their 1960 start in Milan, Italy. Artemide's task lamps--like the Tizio (1972) and the Tolomeo (1987)--are long-standing icons of modern Italian lighting. Working with an exceptional, evolving group of designers and architects, Artemide lighting has been able to broadly innovate with high tech materials, organic forms and advanced LED technology.
