Nothing more than a sphere resting, in an apparently impossible equilibrium, on a cone that acts as its base. It is the Bilia table lamp , one of Gio Ponti 's many compositional magics , designed in 1932 for FontanaArte .
The juxtaposition of two elementary geometric shapes gives rise to an original object with perfect proportions. A simple composition that is enriched thanks to the extraordinary harmony of the proportions and the elegance of the materials. The light is diffused and the light emission is enhanced by the geometric simplicity of the design.
