created by italian product designer mario alessiani, flamingo is a handmade table lamp  born out of no particular concept. the lighting piece includes an LED spot and metal construction built around it for support, hiding the wire and donating stability.  simply put, its aesthetic values are a direct consequence of its structural design.

mario alessiani studio believes in material and proces. we always try to use design as a tool to emphasize material charateristics, interaction or technology through shapes,’ explains the designer. therefore, in the case of this project, no starting points were considered for the conception of the lighting feature: it is a lamp born around the light.
