Sorrento is a portable and rechargeable table lamp. An object that goes beyond the limits of perception, bringing the archetype of the candle holder into the present. A metal base supports three slender aluminium stems, the transparent methacrylate diffuser visually evokes the flame of a candle while emitting indirect light. Dimmable in three steps for an autonomy of up to 15 hours.
Born in Milan, where he graduated in Design at Politecnico Milano, Valerio Sommella started his career working for major design studios between Milan and Amsterdam before founding his own studio in 2009. He considers each project as an opportunity to express his idea of design, by exploring the language of objects through formal, material and technological research.
