“I designed the Tolomeo in 1986. Perhaps I ought to say that I invented it, as in point of fact the idea for a new mechanism came before the lamp was created.” Michele De Lucchi

The iconic Tolomeo lamp is now available in vibrant pops of color. Shades of blue, yellow, coral and white add a bright accent to the black base. The lamp features the same flexible arm and diffuser as the iconic original, working perfectly as both a functional task lamp and design object. Brought out in 1987 and designed for Artemide by Michele De Lucchi
with Giancarlo Fassina, the Tolomeo was an immediate bestseller, consolidating a working relationship that continues to this day. Inspired by traditional balanced arm lamps like the famous Naska Loris, his challenge was to combine an iconic and “domestic” form with innovative technologies and materials, adapting it to a wide variety of uses and settings.

Today it is a well-known symbol of the modern object, commonly seen in houses, offices and hotels, on the desks of architects and on photographic and even film sets.

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.
