Anna

Paolo Tilche, 1962

Anna

The Anna designer table lamp – a simple conical shade with a single, perforated steel rod that serves both as frame and cabling – is a creation that contradicts the statement of the eclectic Milanese architect and entrepreneur who created it, Paolo Tilche, “To be honest, my lamps don’t cast much light; they’re primarily objects”, he said. Yet the minimalist lines of this designer lamp emit both direct and indirect light, flooding the surface below, the walls, the room and everything around it.
