The Arco floor lamp was designed in 1962 by Achille Castiglioni for Flos. The designer wanted to create a floor lamp that would be able to successfully illuminate different settings without the need for a fixed electrical output.
The Arco Lamp is totally suitable for over a dining room table or coffee table in a living room. It can be used in any setting, either residential or maybe in the waiting area of a style conscious professional who wants to let his or her customers know that they are the right person for the job.
The Arco Lamp is a work of art, as well as being immensely functional. The base is made from Carrara marble which comes from a quarry in the Italian Alps. Many of Michelangelo's sculptures were fashioned from this stunning marble which is available in white or black. The base weighs approx 143lbs (65kg) and has a cleverly positioned hole through the middle so that it can be moved with the aid of a broom handle! The design of the lamp is the same today as the day it was first produced except for the technology behind the wiring which is always being improved.
The curved stem of the Arco Lamp is made from stainless steel and can be set at three different heights. It has a very appealing feel to it and the graceful arc of the lamp could be likened to the neck of a swan in all its stately beauty. Or perhaps the stem of a flower weighed down by the opening bud at its head,that is one of the reasons you can find this modern floor lamp in the permanent design collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York and has received numerous awards.
The design driven Flos lighting collection is the standard for architects and interior design professionals. The contemporary designs are the perfect compliment to any home and because the pieces are timeless purchasers will never tire of them.
