Overview

The Troag, designed by Atelier Oï for Foscarini, is a suspension lamp with a light, linear, suspended shape that emanates a sens of natural familiarity, at home or at work. Inspired by a canoe-shaped wooden bowl traditionally found in Swedish homes, the Troag is created in multi-layered wood that is heat curved and whose edges are specially milled to create a dynamic, inclined profile, emphasised by the grain of the wood. The Troag's design makes the most of the light, concentrating it downwards to light tables or surfaces in a uniform manner. An opaline screen situated beneath the fluorescent tube hides the technical components from view and allows the lamp to be used at different heights.

Foscarini imagines, develops and produces decorative lamps: night and day, whether they’re on or off, they seduce, surprise and inspire. Foscarini lights are conceived as design objects that transform spaces: we bring beauty, we stir emotions. Since 1983, the company’s collaboration with international designers and mastery of lighting resulted in a long list of design icons integrated into domestic or collective environments globally.
