The Desk Lamp Built From a Single Sheet of Aluminium
No screws, no glue: a Milan studio folds its new lamp from one laser-cut blank.
By Tomas Adeyemi
Studio Ferri's Piega lamp starts life as one flat sheet of aluminium and is folded into shape by hand.
The cable runs through a channel pressed into the stem, and the head tilts on a fold that can be bent back and forth thousands of times.
In practice
It ships flat, in an envelope.
We wanted the packaging to be thinner than the lamp.
