History
The history of the icon
The Arco lamp was designed in 1962 by Achille Castiglioni, together with his brother Pier Giacomo, for the company FLOS.
The design of the lamp is essential. The lamp weighs about 65 kg. The base is composed of a parallelepiped in white Carrara marble. The innovative idea was to create a hole in the base that allows you to slip inside for example a broomstick and, in two persons, to lift the lamp and move it.
The arch, on the other hand, is composed of three curvilinear steel sections that channel the electrical cable up to the semispherical lamp holder, at a height of 2 meters. The shell is characterized by three holes that allow ventilation and therefore avoid overheating.

Born in 1918, Achille Castiglioni was one of the most important Italian designers and architects and created some of the most original and internationally recognized objects.
The Arco lamp is certainly one of its most important projects and today it is part of the permanent collections of the Triennale museum in Milan and the MoMA in New York.
