Oscar,
a tribute.
The great Brazilian architect Oscar
Niemeyer once said about his work:
“It’s not the right angle that attracts
me, nor the straight line. Stiff, in
exible, created by men. What really
attracts me is the free, sensual curve.
The curve I see on the sinuous course
of our rivers, on the clouds in the sky,
on your favorite woman’s body. The
universe is entirely made of curves”.
Inspired to pay tribute to one of the
founders of modern architecture,
designer Dodo Arslan has created a
series of lights named “Oscar”, which
pay homage through their adoption
of Niemeyer’s signature sensuous
curves. Oscar table lamp consists of
a glass orb delicately held by curved
brass. Available in nickel, brass, black,
white, gold plated and rose gold finish.
