floor lamp and pendant light in one

Flos got off to a flying start in 1962 with the Arco arc lamp from Castiglion. Because, the Arco floor lamp is pendant light at the same time. A hybrid whose expansive metal arch is held by a 60 kilogram block of marble from the Carrara quarries. Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni developed the Arco arched luminaire as lighting for dining tables and seating areas in the living area, without the need for a complex ceiling attachment. Arco thus offers a solution for all room situations characterized by high ceilings.

Craftsmanship meets technology

A masterpiece of craftsmanship and technology - this is the best way to describe the Arco arc lamp. The solid marble base of the luminaire is cut from a single block of marble in Carrara, Italy. After careful polishing, the marble block is given its smooth and silky, typical finish. The steel arc of the luminaire is shaped, bent and chrome-plated using precision tools. This gives the Arco LED floor lamp its shiny and reflective finish. At the same time, the light from the Arco LED arc luminaire can be dimmed in two stages (50% or 100%) or continuously from 10% to 100%, allowing the lighting mood to be individually adjusted and the right light to be available at all times: when eating, reading, watching TV or relaxing.

Thanks to the selection of elegant and classic materials, the Arco LED arc light can be adapted to the existing furnishings, sets an accent and enhances the ambience.
