PizzaKobra, a new table light designed for iGuzzini by Ron Arad. The light features an articulated, chrome-plated spiral that can lie in a flat coil on the ground (like a pizza) or be raised to resemble a cobra about to strike. Being chrome-plated and the light source made up of 6 white LEDs also helps to light up the corner of your favorite room. The steel/aluminum lamp with chrome finish is bit heavy and weighs 2.5kg. It includes a sensor switch, which helps to switch on off the lamp with a mere touch.

Ingo Maurer’s SoHo space was the site for new lighting during ICFF. The Tu-Be pendant light that Maurer designed with Ron Arad featured toothpaste tubes in much profusion. There were plenty of versions of the snakelike Alizzcooper lamp in pendant, table and floor models. Some were even threatening the rats in the Seven Rats installation created in honour of the year of the rat, a time of plenty and a good time for new beginnings. All of Maurer’s new pieces are a delight to take in, but the Early Future table lamp and the Flying Future overhead are of special note. Maurer worked in conjunction with Osram to create pieces that use modules of organic light emitting diodes, a new polymer technology.

Ron Arad has designed a bath for Italian manufacturers Teuco, which rotates to become a shower.
Ron Arad uses the malleability of duralight® and Teuco know-how to present “Rotator”, an original space and a new enjoyable experience in which a continuous and unexpected flow of water becomes the protagonist. The slowly rotating basin transforms into a shower and the continuously flowing water becomes an essential component of the product’s beauty. The background for this creation is a floor with mirrored light and glossy white walls with small red shelves that exalt the materiality and the multi-functionality that are characteristic of duralight®.
