The Tahiti Lamp is one of the most representative objects of the postmodern movement. It is a sculptural and playful table lamp, composed of geometric shapes assembled in a seemingly random manner, but with a precise chromatic logic. The structure is reminiscent of a stylized exotic bird, with a long sloping neck supporting the light source, while the bright colors and patterned decorations enhance its irreverent and experimental character. Made of lacquered sheet metal and laminated plastic, the Tahiti is not only a functional object, but a veritable manifesto of Sottsass's radical design, which challenged aesthetic conventions and turned every piece of furniture into a style statement.
