Inhaltsangabe

The first catalogue raisonné for the celebrated yet short-lived Italian lamp design firm

In its brief existence from 1969 to 1973, the Italian design company NewLamp created no fewer than 55 lamp models, characterized by their innovative and highly modish form and construction. Founded by entrepreneur Mario Vento, its staff included such notable figures as Gianfranco Fini, Fabrizio Cocchia, Gianni Colombo and Giuseppe Ravasio. After only two years, in 1971, NewLamp was awarded the Europremio for furniture design. Over the course of more than 15 years, Paolo Borromeo d’Adda has worked to uncover NewLamp’s complex and clandestine history, revealing the secrets and speculations that have surrounded the firm for 50 years. The product of his research is this definitive catalogue raisonné, showcasing all of NewLamp’s product designs accompanied by preliminary sketches, advertisements and a thorough suite of specifications including all dimensions, the electrical configuration of each lamp, its original price and its present-day valuation.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This volume presents a comprehensive catalogue raisonné of the documented production of NewLamp, a Roman company that, in the relatively brief period between 1969 and 1973, created no fewer than fifty-five lamp models, veritable masterpieces of lighting art. Characterised by their innovative and highly original geometries and forms, these objects have left an indelible mark on the history of design.

Over the course of more than fifteen years, Paolo Borromeo has conducted extensive research, engaging in an intriguing investigation. He has meticulously traced the complex history of NewLamp, overcoming numerous challenges along the way to reveal the secrets that for fifty years has surrounded the work of the company, founded by the visionary entrepreneur and designer Mario Vento. From humble beginnings, in just two years the small company managed to win the Europremio for furniture (1971), a prestigious and internationally recognised award.

Contributing to the success of this entrepreneurial project were some of the greatest Italian designers and architects of the time, including Gianfranco Fini, Fabrizio Cocchia, Gianni Colombo, and Giuseppe Ravasio.
