Foscarini Plass media table lamp with diffused light

The modern table lamp Plass media catches the eye of every observer. However, its special lampshade, which looks like a cut glass bead, is made of plastic. The polycarbonate is processed with the unique method of rotational moulding. Here the raw material is heated in a mould and then rotated until a hollow body is created. This special manufacturing process causes small irregularities to appear on the surface, which can be seen even more clearly when the light is switched on. And it is exactly this irregular structure that makes the plastic look like glass, which gives the table lamp Plass media its special look. When the light is switched on, it also creates an impressive atmosphere with a kaleidoscopic light effect.

The impressive design of the Plass media luminaire series was created by Luca Nichetto. The designer, born in Venice, has developed various lighting series for Foscarini. As a model for the design of Plass media Nichetto used the traditional Murano glass, which he reinterprets impressively by the modern material and the special procedure.
