SURROUNDING LIGHTING

A portable lamp explores the connection between light, food and conviviality. Bontà is a portable lamp that interacts with objects on the table. A body made from white textured milk glass, diffuses light and creates a relaxed atmosphere, while the upper recess is home to a glass bowl designed to hold food for sharing. This can be combined or alternated with a taller bowl and wider one – almost a plate – at the top. The bowls – and the lamp itself – are made from hand-worked glass, making them unique pieces whose texture, transparency and colour generate a special dialogue between light and food, blurring the boundaries between them. Maximum attention to detail has been shown in order to do justice to the object itself and the other elements with which it interacts. Light plays a key role in creating the perfect atmosphere, interacting with other elements on the table and promoting sharing and conviviality. Bonta Portable Lamp by Artemide is designed by Davide Oldani and Attila Veress.
