Taraxacum 88 Suspension Lamp - Flos

The Taraxacum 88 is much more than a lamp: it is a luminous architectural structure , designed to be a focal point with a strong aesthetic and luminous impact. Castiglioni has reinterpreted the idea of ​​the traditional chandelier, transforming it into a contemporary sculptural object , where form and function coexist in spectacular balance .

The name “Taraxacum” derives from the dandelion's dandelion head , evoking the idea of ​​a light, geometric structure that expands into space .
