World-renowned classic from 1977 in a sleek new nickel finish
Since Italian architect and interior designer Vico Magistretti designed Atollo back in 1977, this particular model has stood as the archetype of the classic designer table lamp. In 1979, the lamp won the Compasso d'Oro design award and has since been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Kunstgewerbe Museum in Zurich and the Museum Für Kunst und Gewerbe in Hamburg.
Atollo is a beautiful display of simple, geometric shapes that blend beautifully with each other. The cylindrical base provides stability, while the cone-shaped tip creates a perfect balance point for the hemispherical screen. Through the distinctive minimalist and form-oriented expression of the Atollo table lamp, Magistretti has gone ahead of its time with this beautiful creation, whose monochrome, metallic surface emphasizes its stylish simplicity. So far, the lamp is available in white, black, gold and bronze. Now, however, it also comes in a shiny nickel finish with an ultra-modern look that beautifully supports the minimalist design.
The lamp is equipped with two standard sockets located under the shade. As the shade is made of metal, the light does not leak out but is all directed towards the light outlet at the bottom, creating an effective downlight that also focuses on the beautifully shaped base. The hemispherical shape of the screen prevents light from glaring out to the sides, ensuring direct light but in a comfortable quality.
Atollo comes in three versions: 238 Small, 239 Medium and 233 Large. The Model 238 has a regular push switch, while the switch on the Model 239 and Model 233 has a built-in dimming function that allows you to adjust the brightness to provide the right lighting for any occasion, any time and any purpose. With a height and diameter of 70x50 centimeters, the Large version also works well as a floor lamp.
