July 14, 2015 - “A drop of light that has been crystallized in a timeless frame, almost like a captured ray of light flowing across a drop of dew, a smooth and gentle form”.

Alcatraz Floor Lamp's remarkable structure is the result of meticulous material research. The base and stem are comprised of painted metal, the diffuser of injection-molded thermoplastic, and the reflector of die-cast aluminum. Direct and indirect lights are managed separately, allowing versatile and varied lighting options.

About Artemide

The Artemide light has never been solely a function of seeing, or an opportunity for formal experimentation with lamps as objects. For more than forty years, Artemide has aimed to propose light as a companion to people, as a source of physical pleasure and mental comfort. Artemide has done so, with different work groups, searching through the whole design process, starting with a declaration of values - The human light.

Beyond the definition, the human light is intelligent light. A light that knows it has to relate to people, accompanying them in their daily activities. That is why Artemide's attention today is concentrated on the concept of the context of life, understood as a specific microenvironment in which an event occurs where one or more persons are the protagonist, every context of life can be associated with different light contexts, or the different atmospheres of light characterized by the activities that, at various moments of the day, have us as protagonists, starting from these contexts and the lighting conditions that characterize them, Artemide proposes products capable of meeting people's multiple needs and offering the light performance characteristics most suited to each moment of life, it is light that is flexible and adaptable, which produces the optimum visual precision, and consumes the minimum environmental resources, it is Artemide light.
