Cappellini astonishes the design community with a new surprising lamp. Also the packaging is exciting, a portable box that exalt its lightness.
Confirming his attitude to be synonymous with conemporary and avant-garde design, Cappellini presents a new product from a talented young designer: the Meltdown lamp by the Swedish Johan Lindstén. The official date will be January 2013 at the Imm Cologne fair (Germany). The project was shown at the Salone Satellite Milan 2012 and Cappellini will astonish the design community presenting it in a very short time.
Meltdown is a group of lamps of thin coloured glass with a spherical shape. The inspirational idea was to make something beautiful from the disastrous nuclear accident in Fukushima. Would an actual meltdown occur and what would the impact be? The disaster is reflected in the lamps where the process already begun and the bulb are about to melt through the last defence of the glass. The diameter of every lamp is 285 mm and they can be composed in the linear way or as a grape.
