Lu-Lu
A theoretical lamp endowed with just the right measure of geometric abstraction required by objects to maintain their courtliness. The geometries chosen by Stefano Casciani are primitive, ancient ones occasionally filtered, perhaps, through cubist suggestion. The color (even white here is color) constitutes a necessary and consequent datum: marking the volume, emphasizing the profile. The simplification of form in reality protects a core that is complex from the manufacturing point of view (a double mold for blowing the glasses) and from that of the lighting engineering (with differentiated optics such as switches and the sensorial, grazing, and dimmer).
In the table version a slight gap lifts the glass off the top and projects a sharp, circular shadow: a detail not to be underrated. Lu-Lu can desired, be left completely off and hence textural, or on and thus dissolved, but also lit only in its upper half (the light resting on the heavy) or in its lower half (the heavy resting on the light).
