Foscarini
Foscarini imagines, develops and produces decorative lamps: night and day, whether they’re on or off, inside or outside – they seduce, innovate and inspire. Foscarini lights are conceived as design products that transform spaces: they bring beauty, they stir emotions. Foscarini designs with an independence from any production constraints, which translates into freedom of ideas. The company’s 35 years of collaborations with international designers and mastery of lighting has resulted in a long list of design icons integrated into domestic or collective environments globally. One constant throughout their history has been their rigor and passion for each project.
This is a company with brand values, such as freedom – the absence of constraints – in production, technologies, or on the supply-side – makes them independent from mental constraints. Their heritage is not based on the production potential of their ideas, but the ability to create them. Their products are a dialogue between a concept and a form. We get to the mind through the heart. The passion that they inspire is that which they themselves experience for our products and the projects from which they originate. We are never satisfied with “easy” solutions, or with the first idea at our fingertips. We believe the best is always further away.
Their lamps are an expression of a coherent vision which guide their creative, aesthetic, and moral instincts. They do not vegetate in neutrality, they take positions. Wherever they are in the world, they bring with them a unique perspective engrained in Italy’s culture: they prioritize mastery, craftsmanship and most importantly, our design vision. For them, production is always the point of arrival within the design process.
Foscarini was one of the first Italian companies in the lighting sector to obtain the UNI EN ISO 9001 certification, which guarantees the quality of the entire production process. In 2012, in order to reduce the environmental impact of the activities, the UNI EN ISO 14001: 2004 certification was added.
At Créma, we’re particularly fond of their Twiggy floor lamp (and we have it on display), the Buds suspension lamp, the Allegro Vivace and the Caboche ceiling light.
