Forms - the feminine, restful softness of long, rounded, swelling curves, contrasted with the hard, angular asperity of the rectangle or square - echo the complementary contrasts of materials, in a style inspired by the 1930s to the 1950s. The frenzy and the opulence of the Jazz Age allied to the creative explosion of the post-war period. Art Nouveau revisited, where the very idea of designing an identical form of lightning for every part of the home is unthinkable, each area having its own specific function and character. The sitting room is not made made for washing in, nor the bathroom for sleeping in, so each object is specifically created to suit the room for which it is destined: table lamps and standard lamps for the sitting room, desk lamp and bedside lamps for the bedroom, luminous structures of shattered glass for the bathroom. |
