The lamp’s distinctive handle – which includes a dimmer or normal switch - is designed in such a way as to be easily held and manoeuvred. The Fortebraccio is available with a universal mount, allowing it to be fitted directly on tables, walls and, thanks to its particular system of joints, on slanted surfaces.
Alberto Meda represents the fusion of art and science, reason and imagination, technical innovation and formal virtuosity that characterizes the best of Italian design. Meda first studied mechanical engineering at the Politecnio di Milano, graduating in 1969.
Meda is acknowledged for his ability to use state-of-the-art materials in ways that are visually arresting as well as structurally sound, for example his Upper Folding Ladder. He has won a number of design awards for his creations, including a Compasso d'Oro and Design Plus award.
