Gismondi's Orange

A Tilos lamp by Ernesto Gismondi — founder, president and chief designer of Artemide — from the house's postmodern period of the 1980s. The 20cm translucent orange glass shade shimmers when lit, throwing warm, diffused ambient light, and the compact 12cm depth suits spots where projection is limited. The orange colourway is scarcer than the common white versions. Versatile by design: wall sconce, ceiling fixture, or with a base, a table lamp.
