New Collection from Rotaliana, 2013

New Collection from Rotaliana, Hanging Lamps 2013
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  • Dina is a small hanging lamp that offers diffused light. It is a lamp made with polycarbonate.
  • This “ordinary” shape hides a LED source. The diffuser, either translucent or chromed, turns transparent when the light is switched on and reveals the absence of a traditional bulb, just like magic.
  • It’s light is warm and soft, making it perfect as a bedside, desktop or living-room lamp.
  •  
     
     
     
                                                Rotaliana Capri Pendant Lamp
    • This family of ceiling lamps comes in three different sizes.
    • The bells are made of drawn steel and 3D laser cut decoration following a pattern that recalls a plant weave design, fish traps or the straw used to make sea hats.
    • These lamps join both modernity and Mediterranean imaginary.
    • The light is diffused through the holes in the pattern
     
                                               Rotaliana Sunflower Pendant Lamp
     This family of LED-based ceiling lamps is a collection of three different models.
    • The body of the lamps is a “sunflower” heat sink (a cylinder with extruded aluminium flaps).
    • The extrusion has both aesthetic and cooling purposes and is shaped to obtain evocative metal flowers, paper lanterns and modernistic lamps.
    • The 20 Watts LED source has optics in a range of narrow, medium and wide beam angles thanks to the chance to assemble three different types of optics.

    In Between Chair, &Tradition

    The interpay between positive and negative space is central to in Between, Samy Kallio's new chair for &Tradition.


     
     
    Its back and side panels provide a concrete shape and support, but forms are created equally by the gaps in between then.


    “What’s exciting about In Between is the successful clash between the industrial process and the traditional techniques that reference hand-crafted wooden furniture,” says Martin Kornbek Hansen, brand director of &tradition. In Between’s combination of modern industry and traditional craft is in perfect accordance with &tradition’s championing of tradition tied to innovation” explains Sami.

    Kartell New Products Fall 2012

    Jelly by Patricia Urquiola, Jelly is a series of design items consisting of 2 pieces: a vase, and a plate/table center. With this new series Kartell in its continuous search for new tactile and aesthetic effects once again demonstrates its technological know-how in experimenting with the texturisation of surfaces.


    Kartell Abbracciaio Candle Holder by Philippe Starck. Even if they are no longer used for lighting, candles still shed the light of the designer’s creative spark thanks to design supports that lend them contemporary appeal. Abbracciaio is an aluminium casting of two shapes which when placed one in front of the other become a loving embrace. The two structures are linked giving the piece stability. Elegant and poetic, Abbracciaio holds two candles and is made of polished aluminium in gold, silver and gun metal colours.

     
    Kartell Only Me Mirror by Philippe Starck. Only Me reflects the Narcissus present in each one of us.
    • Designed by Starck, Only Me is a mirror (only size 50x70 cm available), encased in a slim PMMA frame of 8 cm, made of various transparent colours - emerald green, fuchsia and azure, or in the two matte classics of white and black.
    refracted light radiating from prism-like crystals with alternating glows and shadows, creating irregular geometric forms, with a multiform and multicoloured fascination like its Oriental namesake.
    Kartell Shanghai Vase by Mario Bellini. A multifaceted vase opening from the base to the top in a swirling motion that projects light and energy. Shanghai is like refracted light radiating from prism-like crystals with alternating glows and shadows, creating irregular geometric forms, with a multiform and multicoloured fascination like its Oriental namesake.

    Questo Design presents you the new Kartell products shown in Milan 2012

                                  Kartell Miss Less Chair by Philippe Starck



    • A rigorous material chair which grew out of a sculpture is transformed into an industrially produced household item.
    • The seat has the strength and authority of a primitive form, a block of material made contemporary by the glossy plastic moulded material of which it is made.
    • Ideal for both home and contract, Miss Less is formed by a comfortable squared-off monolithic base (available in various matte colours) and a slim backrest of transparent polycarbonate. 
                                                Kartell One More by Philippe Starck


    • If you want to sip a drink at the bar in peace and quiet, you need a comfortable tall stool with a back to lean against.
    • Sometimes one drink is not enough: and you need "One more" and sometimes "One more please".
    • The "Ghost" family, one of the absolute Kartell icons, multiplies its ranks with stools of different heights - 65 cm or 75 cm - with backs, either oval or square, but always flexible, practical, coloured and sturdy.
