habraken and mannino light up your life
June 2, 2008 12:40 pm

The point at which Dutch avant-gardism meets Italian modernism is indeed bright one. And it can come together surprisingly quickly—Jan Habraken and Sergio Mannino’s retro table lamp, vaguely reminiscent of a roadway makeup table, was designed only four weeks prior to New York’s International Contemporary Furniture Fair last month. The two prototypes of the lamp, one in brushed aluminum and one in white, use three arm-glowing incandescent lightbulbs, not the potentially toxic old-fashioned fluorescent kind. Another bright idea.
