Designer floor lamp La Petite - minimalist design with optical illusion Visually clear elements, exquisitely combined to create an amazing geometric composition - that is the designer floor lamp La Petite from Italian lighting manufacturer Artemide. It gives the impression that the lampshade is magically floating on the frame. The archetypal lampshade in the form of a truncated cone is attached to the side of the frame, which is inclined at the top. The design of the lamp series comes from Quaglio Simonelli, a collaboration between the two Italian designers Andrea Quaglio and Manuela Simonelli, whose Atelier is located in Paris. They design furniture, furnishings, lights and technical products, blending the industrial with the artisanal. Their designs have been honoured several times, e.g. with the Red Dot Design Award or the IF Product Design Award; some of their designs are part of the collection of the National Fund for Contemporary Art in Paris.
