Asia is an innovative concept whose light source is both the functional and the decorative part of the lamp, thus perfectly encapsulating Contardi’s ethos of blending state-of-the-art technology and creative design. A product range characterised by a clean and linear form, yet with a strong personality, Asia’s lampshade is inspired by the pointed hats of Chinese rice pickers, and the material combination of fabric, glass and metal is a further key feature of the collection. Asia is available in two different versions: one with the lampshade in white cotton (outside and inside), the second with one side in white cotton fabric and the other in anthracite-coloured cotton. It comes as table, wall, ceiling and suspension models of different sizes.
