The ‘Pileino’ table lamp, designed by Gae Aulenti in 1972 for Artemide, is a rare space age classic. Crafted from white lacquered metal with a plastic base, this sculptural lamp has a rotating, adjustable metal shade that allows for dynamic light direction.
Gae Aulenti (1927-2012) was a prolific Italian architect, art director, and product designer renowned for her post-war style and industrial designs. She was the art director of Fontana Arte and designed a range of modern, innovative pieces. Aulenti was one of few women in the field at the time and is regarded as one of the most iconic figures in Italian design and architecture.
Gae Aulenti’s collaboration with Artemide, a leading Italian lighting manufacturer, is a notable chapter in the history of modern design. Starting in the 1970s, this partnership brought forward some of Aulenti’s most iconic lighting designs. One of their most significant collaborations resulted in the creation of the Pileo floor lamp, introduced in 1972. Aulenti’s ability to merge architectural principles with everyday objects is evident in this design, making it a standout piece.
