Foscarini Havana floor lamp dimmer chrome/white

Floor lamp with diffused light - Foscarini Havana with dimmer

In its form it reminds a little bit of a cigar, which certainly might have led to its name. The modern Havana floor lamp is made of a shade with four elements made of injection-moulded polyethylene, which are held together with small circular metal hooks. The individual elements do not touch each other, but are held together safely and reliably. When the light is switched on, the Havana floor lamp enchants its surroundings with a bright light which is visible not only through the individual elements but also through the small distances between them as three thin strips of light. An integrated dimmer on the supply cable ensures that the brightness of the Havana floor and floor lamp can be adjusted at any time.

The extraordinary design of the Havana lighting series was created by Jozeph Forakis, who has his own studios in Milan and New York. His work is always characterised by an innovative approach and use of materials combined with manufacturing techniques. The Havana lighting series, which he designed for the Italian manufacturer Foscarini, combines both. Havana thus became a successful model that was included in the permanent collection of the MoMA in New York.
