The Atoll, for many years now, is no longer a lamp or rather is not just a lamp.
It is a myth, it is an icon: one of the most accepted symbols in the world of design, one of the very few products that everyone recognizes and calls by name. Designed by Vico Magistretti in 1977, in 1979 it won the Compasso d’Oro and since then has been part of the permanent collections of the major design museums, but it has also become part of the furnishings of many homes, inhabited by people who love and know how to choose the things that surround them.
The secret probably lies in the geometric construction of its forms: the cone on the cylinder and above all the hemisphere. A luminous sculpture to which nothing can be removed, nothing can be added. And that it is impossible to imitate.

Cypriot-born, London-based designer Michael Anastassiades is one of the most captivating talents working in any visual field today. With his firmly held philosophy that great design should ignite cultural and intellectual discussion, Anastassiades work transcends traditional modern furniture, accessory, and environmental design.

You know a Michael Anastassiades piece when you see one. With a trained, perspicacious eye for art and creation, Anastassiades’ quietly seductive post-industrial jewelry, lighting, furniture, and tabletop objects illustrate the designer’s never ending fascination with stark lines, simple geometric composition, and utilitarian function. Michael Anastassiades lighting is well sought after.

After completing training as a civil engineer at the Imperial College of Science Technology and Medicine in London, Anastassiades completed a Masters Degree at the Royal College of Art in Industrial Design. During this time he began experimenting with many of the tenets that would define his later career: the use of reflective materials and the juxtaposition of the quotidian and the otherworldly. Anastassiades opened his London-based studio in 1994, going on to create his signature lighting collections, along with additional furniture and objects in conjunction with a small network of highly international, family owned and operated producers.

Michael Anastassiades virtuosic purview instantly registered with collectors and clients, drawn to request limited edition pieces. Michael Anastassiades lights include elemental shapes, such as cylinders, spheres, and tubes, that are often paired with elevated materials including mirrors, crystal and polished bronze, a material interplay that’s been widely imitated in the world of lighting and beyond. A collaboration with Studio Mumbai in 2006 led to partnerships with leading architectural designers David Chipperfield and John Pawson, and interior design companies like Studio Isle.

Collaborative and culturally-attuned by nature, Michael Anastassiades has a long track record of partnering with some of the zeitgeist’s most interesting names, including fashion designer Hussein Chalayan, Parisian boutique Colette and venerable glassmaker Lobmeyer. The designer has been recognized with numerous solo exhibitions: the Cyprus Presidency at the European Parliament; Geymüllerschlössel/MAK in Vienna; the Svenskt Tenn in Stockholm; and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. His works also appear at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, the Craft Council in London, the FRAC Centre in Orleans, France.

The Tube Chandelier, a triangular fixture with lights illuminating from each of its three sides, is a sleek addition to any residential or commercial space.

Mario Botta’s use of radically simplified and reduced geometric forms as well as his insistence on rationality and functionality in his designs reveals a close affinity with the Bauhaus and Modernist traditions. During the years 1964 to 1969, while living in Venice, Botta made contact with giants of the modern architectural world – Le Corbusier, Louis Kahn and Carlo Scarpa. These three architects/designers continue to influence Botta’s own work which includes both domestic and public architecture as well as designs for objects such as the Shogun lamp

To Charlotte Perriand, lamps were not a decorative element added for no reason, but a functional and technical component, a tool and an object answering to specific needs. Perriand’s minimalistic approach instills a timeless character in her creations: these are the “Useful Forms” that came from the movement she co-founded in 1949. Like Perriand’s furniture, her lamps are not immovable, but rotate and bend themselves, adjusting to our needs.
