lunar surface-inspired lamp by e-ggs x miniforms gently illuminates interiors

e-ggs x miniforms collaborate for lunar-inspired fixtures

A collaboration between Miniforms, and e-ggs, the Rificolona lighting fixture brings gentle radiance to any living space. Its light softly diffuses through a tactile material reminiscent of the lunar surface. This effect is achieved by interacting small grains of polylactic acid (PLA) with the light, resulting in a subtle and uniform illumination. Inspired by the artist and designer Bruno Munari’s journeys in Japan, the Florence-based designers and the Italian furniture company aim to spread comfort through their design. Named after Florentine folklore, Rificolona allows one to enjoy its shape, even when turned off fully, and becomes a decorative element in varied environments.

rificolona comes in two versions, balancing form and function

Despite its considerable size, Rificolona maintains a sense of weightlessness due to its construction. Available in two variants, there’s the pendant option, featuring a double wire system for easy inclination adjustment, and the Floor model, supported by three slender black metal legs.

Rificolona by e-ggs (find more here) and Miniforms (find more here) can be used individually to illuminate corners or paired to grace workspaces or domestic settings. In groups, Rificolona transforms stairwells, corridors, or expansive rooms into inviting spaces. In pairs, it illuminates work or domestic areas. Whether alone or in clusters, Rificolona balances form and function, making it a versatile addition to any interior design scheme.
