Light the Way
Now available at Stylecraft, iconic Italian brand Artemide is sought after by design aficionados around the world for its timeless lamps
Your choice of lighting can dramatically impact the look and mood of a space. So it is no surprise that Italian brand Artemide’s philosophy of creating “light as a companion to people” has given rise to several classic styles over the years. The brand was founded by the late Ernesto Gismondi in 1960, and many of its creations have been showcased in museums of modern art and design collections worldwide ever since.
To this day, Artemide continues to illuminate the way forward in lighting design, with innovations such as the incorporation of sustainable LED lights to ensure it remains relevant to modern users. Homeowners can discover Artemide’s groundbreaking lighting solutions exclusively at Stylecraft, which has showrooms in Singapore and Australia.
Some of Artemide’s most recognisable products, such as its Tolomeo, Demetra and Tizio collections, are today considered icons of contemporary design and highly coveted by collectors around the world. For example, the Tolomeo series, created by Michele De Lucchi and Giancarlo Fassino in 1986, is widely hailed by designers and architects as the perfect marriage of engineering and design. The original desk lamp, which features adjustable arms and a sleek lampshade, won hearts with its versatility and elegance. Today, the series has expanded to include versions in various sizes to cater to different needs.
Another classic is the streamlined Tizio lamp, designed by Richard Sapper in 1972. This award-winning reading light features a small, ergonomic base that is perfectly counterbalanced by its metal arms to stand steadily in different orientations. This iconic piece has also been added to various museum archives, and has been collected by notable institutions including The Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in New York.
