Foscarini 179071 16 tropic bell ice

The rings to which the diamond-shaped elements of Giulio Iacchetti's Tropic are connected are inspired by the parallels of the earth in this new Foscarini project, which explores modularity to emphasize the personality of the product. The development of the model began with a single element, which did not it is only an aesthetic and formal component, but it also has a structural function. It is in fact the diffuser that supports the weight of the lamp, shared between each of the individual elements. The simple but very distinctive lozenge element is made of thermoplastic resin which gives an extraordinary sensation material Although it is a very rational industrial piece, it offers a warm and pleasant overall result, thanks to its two finishes and the manual assembly whose natural irregularity gives an almost artisanal appearance, a changeable model. The modularity of Tropico allows infinite combinations: simply by varying the diameter, the succession of rings or the arrangement and number of individual elements, it is possible to obtain different shapes and sizes. Despite this, it is available in four standard versions - sphere, vertical, bell and ellipse - which enhance its wide possibilities of use
