TIA 200
Tia 200 is the latest pendant light designed for
Lumina by the famous London firm of architects
Foster+Partners. It’s characterized by simple
and balanced forms: the inspired harnessing
of technology to a minimalist aesthetic makes
this lamp a timeless object.
Expressing Lumina’s insistence on the
recyclability of every component, the Tia 200
is completely disassemblable and the body
of the lamp (glass shade, recyclable PMMA lens
and aluminium structure) is totally recyclable.
Concealed within the Tia 200’s simple forms
is a triumph of technology. The lamp’s Lumina-
designed central optical unit, in turned satin-
finish PMMA, was developed to guarantee
uniform diffusion of the beam and prevent
annoying glare and light/shadow contrasts.
The filter on the bottom of the unit, a photo-
engraved brass plate, reduces glare to ensure
a pleasant effect not only on the illuminated
surfaces but also when looking at the lamp itself.
