Taking on the concept of a “new kind of object’ as opposed to simply a lamp, the SOLAR floor/table lamp by Jean Marie Massaud & Foscarini offers a vision of evoked emotion through its hemispherical shape and the space that it effects through its warm, ambient light. Created by internationally renowned design innovator Foscarini and designed by Jean Marie Massaud, the SOLAR creates a scene that can be placed both indoors and outdoors — a version of the lamp for each — as it boasts being waterproof and unbreakable. Its flat circular cross-section that’s upturned acts as a resting surface, while the light swell itself faces downwards which lends to the luminous glow, diffused throughout its surroundings. You can learn more about the lamp’s concept and design here.
