FOSCARINI BIG BANG ....
DESIGN BY ENRICO FRANZOLI & VICENTE GARCIA JIMENEZ 2005
Irregular and apparently random intersections of spatial planes create a volume around the light source and produce the dynamic character of the exuberant ceiling lamp. By evoking the dynamism of an explosion, the acrylic planes seem to escape the central luminous core and explode in all directions.
A highly plastic luminous body, characterised by the intrigues of light and shade, of great visual impact and yet aerial, ideal for single-handedly personalising interiors of various styles.
Big Bang provides an intense, decisive and direct light. The particular arrangement of the surfaces guarantees maximum reflection and at the same time avoids dazzling, whilst offering a different lighting effect from all angles.
