Overview

The Vigo lamp family by David Chipperfield for Artemide reinterprets the concept of an old-fashioned street light for domestic environment. Vigo consists of dual overlapping cones with one placed inside and flush with its mate. The inner cone is made of black metal while the outer is transparent, handblown borosilicate glass. Together, the cones produce aesthetic contrast but work in unison to shape, direct and diffuse light. David Chipperfield’s comprehensive Vigo family includes three variations for floor, wall and suspension.

Artemide has been a worldwide leader in lighting design with an unparalleled commitment to technological innovation, research and human interaction, committed to the philosophy of "the Human Light". For over six decades, Artemide has created award-winning collaborations with some of the world’s most talented designers.
