Wood touched by Light
Asterisco, Silent lamp
Asterisco is a schematic design by Valencian design studio Cuatro Cuatros that unites two functions in a single object: lamp and lectern. A fun, practical light that really makes a statement. In fact its presence is so punctuating that the studio decided to call it "Asterisk". Its clever integration with a lectern allows various uses as a support and display for books, tablets, smartphones, notes,… and helps to organize different elements in an orderly way while making the most of the available surface. It allows a great variety of solutions and is available in two different sizes. This funky table lamp raises important aesthetic questions about balance, and the way that life-giving electricity is fed through a red umbilical cord. Asterisco can be used at home as well as for contract purposes, an ideal solution for restaurants, lobbies, hotels, hospitals, libraries, anywhere you need to prop something up, and for it to be visible.
