From Modoloco design workshop, the ‘malena’ was designed in 2006
“”Ironic interpretation of the abat-jour lamp”.
A single colored aluminum sheet, with ends cut in the shape of a lamp, is bent and lit from the inside. A lampshade that becomes a lamp, and a different lamp at that, depending on your perspective. One of many lamps from Milan-based Modoloco (great name!). Other lamps include Sandwich, another riff on lampshades, and the Foglio wall sconce, as well as a magnetic modular pouf called Cactus. We also got a 3D drawing for a tray, called Aperitivo, that “allows you to carry all you need for a good aperitif”.”
Designers: Flavio Mazzone, Claudio Larcher
Haha I love this idea. Would probably only look great from the front view though? But still, something fun/different.
