Spokes Foscarini

Designer Studio Garcia-Cumini
The hanging lamp Spokes was inspired by images of antique oriental lanterns and less exotic aviaries. The designers observed the spokes of a bicycle wheel and this is what gave the lamp its name. The result is soft shapes and a lightweight lamp which holds the light allowing it to filter out into the room. The lightweight quality of the project combines with the solidity of its forms in metal rod and the practicality of its LED light source allowing it both to light up surfaces perfectly and project an interplay of light and shade onto the walls with a magical multiplication effect. The development of the project into two forms, two sizes and two colour variants highlights its versatility making Spokes particularly suitable for both living spaces and public venues and ideal in large architectural contexts as well in its multiple compositions.
