Martinelli Luce rewards enlightening ideas

Martinelli Luce, Colibrì

Martinelli Luce, the historic lighting manufacturer (whose best-known products are the Pipistrello lamp designed in 1965 by Gae Aulenti, and the Cobra model by Elio Martinelli, from 1968), has launched the Martinelli Luce Lighting Contest on the Desall platform. Until 28 April, designers and creative talents from around the world (minimum age 18) can submit their projects for a suspension lamp for living areas.

As indicated in the guidelines, the idea should respond to criteria of minimalism, dynamism, modular design, serial production, geometric forms and reference to the natural world, all with a sustainable approach.
