“To find out how to produce such a thin and light ring we turned to bicycle manufacturers, and the result was this very light luminous profile and an almost invisible lamp.” – Ernesto Gismondi

Discovery is a family of appliances based on minimal geometry. A very light aluminum ring houses an LED strip that injects light into a specially worked surface of transparent PMMA.
The diffuser is composed of a perfectly transparent PMMA surface, processed with micro particles so small that the surface is hardly perceptible when the appliance is turned off.

When the appliance is turned on, the transparent interior appears to fill with light as if by magic, as absence is turned into a perfectly diffusing emitting surface.
This unique result is obtained through Discovery’s direct and indirect emissions, which produce an embracing and uniform light. Their geometry and layout are calculated to obtain constant emission throughout the surface.

Discovery is an unprecedented development of a well-known optical principle, conveyed through the controlled interaction with matter and a focus on its yield and perceptive qualities.

Available in wall & suspension.

Artemide

Milan, Italy

Artemide is a visionary Italian lighting manufacturer and a global leader in the design industry, celebrated for its "Human Light" philosophy that places well-being and sustainability at the center of innovation. Founded in 1960 by Ernesto Gismondi and Sergio Mazza in Milan, the brand has evolved from a boutique laboratory into an international icon, with its fixtures permanently displayed in prestigious museums like MoMA and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Today, the company is the first choice for architects and designers seeking boundary-pushing solutions, offering a catalog that spans from the legendary Tolomeo and Tizio task lamps to avant-garde, sculptural installations that redefine the relationship between light and space.

What truly distinguishes Artemide is its unique blend of next-generation technology, scientific research, and ancient Italian craftsmanship. The brand is a pioneer in "responsible light," utilizing high-performance materials and patented optical solutions to maximize energy efficiency while minimizing environmental impact. By collaborating with world-renowned architects and designers—including Bjarke Ingels Group, Zaha Hadid, and Herzog & de Meuron—Artemide ensures each product is a marriage of technical precision and poetic expression. This dedication to "design-forward" engineering results in a collection of timeless masterpieces that do more than illuminate a room; they enhance the quality of human life and the architectural integrity of the modern environment.
