“The idea came when I looked at subway air vents in New York City. I wanted to design a lamp which combines the manufacturing technology of air vents with emotive pattern. Result is wall light where you can see minimalist landscape with distant islet is reflected in the surface of the water.”
Mikko Laakkonen
Islet is an applique with a minimal shape but a peculiar poetic lighting effect.
Its surface is animated by the light rays escaping from the slits on the front of its structure. Lots of tiny holes across the sheet metal fold let light through. This is reflected on the small wings produced by the folded material.
The surfaces multiply reflexes and diffuse light. This results into a varying perception according to the view point, with the concealed or framed perforated area brightened up by the opal glass that hides the LED sources from sight.
Opal glass also closes the top and bottom for better light diffusion without glaring.

Artemide
Milan, Italy
Today the catalogue spans desk and task lamps, floor lamps, pendants, wall and ceiling lights and architectural systems. Artemide has worked with Zaha Hadid, Herzog & de Meuron and Bjarke Ingels Group, among many others, and it develops its own optics and patented technologies. The company calls its approach Human Light: lighting designed around how people feel, see and work, with efficient LED sources and careful glare control. Sixty years in, Artemide still treats a lamp as an engineering problem and a piece of culture at once.
