For the Casa de Vidro, a symbolic project of Brazilian modernist architecture, Lina Bo Bardi designed in 1950 LBB01, a paradigm in the world of lighting. An essential and geometric design in which lines and volumes touch and intersect, in total continuity with the design style of the house in São Paulo. The telescopic stem and 360° adjustable diffusers in black painted aluminium allow direct and indirect lighting, while the interior finish is matt white.
Born in Rome in 1914, Lina Bo Bardi is one of the most notable and expressive architects of the 20th century. Her works were influenced by inspiring collaboration in Milan and later in Sao Paolo, where she moved permanently.
A prolific architect and designer, she devoted her working life to promoting the social and cultural potential of architecture and design.
