Initially produced in black and white, The 265 Wall Lamp is now presented in ‘chromatica’, a version starring the colours from Rizzatto’s original sketch. The Wall Lamp’s innovative design enables the user to adjust the lamp to their desired position, featuring a yellow tapered counterweight, perfectly balancing the diffuser for ease of movement and a connecting blue arm supported via a slender steel wall fitting. The shade, iterated in a vivid red tone casts direct light that can be oriented in any direction thanks to the lamp’s easy manoeuvrability, allowing 265 to provide excellent task lighting above a dining table, lounge chair or desk. The lamp is available in two sizes.
Born in Milan in 1941, Paolo Rizzatto works in the fields of architecture, interiors, design, lighting and teaching. He founded Luceplan together with Riccardo Sarfatti in 1978.
His architecture and design projects form part of permanent exhibitions and numerous museums: architectural associations in London, Milano Triennale, Wave Hill Museum Centre in New York, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
