Compared to the rest of Europe, Italy was quite late to start the industrial production of design. The country didn’t do so until the early 1900s, where style was primarily dictated by painters and artists, who were inspired by speed, machinery, and industry. This unique start to Italian design meant that Italy developed a different approach, which has gone on to result in the creation of various exciting designs—including lamp designs.
The Italians have been innovative in terms of ceiling lamps too. If you’re looking for a simple plafond with a straightforward design that contributes a good base light, check out the
Studio Italia Design and
Flos collections. These two Italian brands are passionate about light and focused on high quality and gorgeous design.
If you’re looking for an artistic ceiling lamp made from exciting materials and with an eye-catching design, then check out the collections from
SLAMP and
Kartell. Both brands have various impressive and colourful plafond lamps in their collections.
