Research, innovation, and refinement are the values that have driven Luceplan since it was founded by Paolo Rizzatto, Riccardo Sarfatti, and Sandra Severi in 1978. For over forty years Luceplan has pushed the cutting edge, ever exploring the potential of designer lighting--aesthetically, technologically, and functionally.
In addition to the creations of Rizzatto, Sarfatti, and Severi, Luceplan's catalogue features collaborations with an international roster of lighting designers including Luciano Balestrini, Stephen Burks, and Ross Lovegrove. From the crystal-like polycarbonate of the Hope collection by Rizzatto and Francisco Gomez Paz to the inconceivably narrow plywood rings of Zsuzsanna Horvath's Red Dot award winning Illan suspension, Luceplan empowers and encourages designers to explore and experiment.
As part of its commitment to innovation and development, Luceplan has also devoted itself wholeheartedly to sustainability and environmentally-friendly production. These considerations are present in every design, from the materials chosen to the packaging for shipment. In this way, they help support the future that they strive towards with every new designer light they offer.
The lamp is composed of a very light body made with extremely thin, flexible plywood, cut by laser along densely packed equidistant lines. This is a precious and varying material whose unique natural character can be seen in the typical grain pattern. These characteristics are the distinctive features of the project. Once suspended from the ceiling, Illan takes on volume thanks to the force of gravity and assumes its characteristic form that floats in the air.
The wood is FSC certified and flat packaged for an eco-friendly sustainable product with a smaller carbon footprint.
The design language of Daniel Rybakken returns to its reliance on the intrinsic power of basic geometric forms, turning this time to the symbol of harmony par excellence: the circle. An extension of the Compendium family, Circle is a lamp with a poetic nature and an essential design, whose lightness is sustained by LED technology, installed to permit direct emission when pointed downward, or diffused light when aimed upward. It is also possible to combine up to three rings of different diameters to give rise to different configurations and luminous scenarios of great visual impact.
Doi is a family of decorative indoor lamps which takes on different possible configurations in the suspension models, formed by only a disk and a cylinder, or with the added “pendulum” accessory. Depending on the interaction of the key parts of the project – the disk and the diffuser cylinder – as well as on the magnetic attachment or the play of counterweights, different compositions can be created, to produce the desired orientation of the beam of light.
Elegance and purity in form characterise the “Koinè” family of pendant lights, named for its meaning of “shared language” and for its shapes which make it extremely versatile. The light source features a specially designed mineral lens. The light beam distributed by the lens is homogenous and distinct, a broad cone of light with clearly-defined edges.
Supported by a single asymmetrical cable, the lamp keeps its balance thanks to the thicknesses of the body, varying from 8 to 25 mm, offering a slim aerial lighting element that brings brightness with discretion and elegance. An object that defies the laws of physics, thanks to technology that permits design bordering on the impossible.
The range of Malamata lights (named to recall the designer’s Israeli roots, drawing on the Hebrew meaning of ‘up and down’) is characterised by the possibility of a variety of diffuser positions. The light can be adjusted thanks to a sphere counterweight. Pushing the button on top of the sphere, a sping is released and the counterweight is free to slide on the steam, allowing to change the diffuser position up and down.
A chandelier of great emotional impact, based on the creative intuition of the designer, together with the research on materials, technology and design conducted by di Luceplan. A new protagonist for living areas in the home, but also for contract applications. The size is impressive, yet the overall image is ethereal, like an organism floating in space.
Levante (the name suggests lightness and wind, but also a clear reference to oriental aesthetics) stems from the intersection of three large fans, made in an unprecedented material for the design sector, borrowed from the world of food, with an appearance similar to rice paper, to spread light in a uniform way over surfaces.
The thickness of the veils is minimal, and they are attached with magnets to the central core that contains the light source, hidden as if it were an organic, beating heart.
Composed of glass spheres at different heights, Stochastic takes on infinite combinations in a sort of controlled Freedom: each sphere is connected to small steel rods of different lengths that can be attached to the structure according to your own creative impulses. The light source – a double high-efficiency LED module – is enclosed in the spheres, generating warm indirect light aimed upward and downward.
