One from the Heart table lamp
Back in 1989, Ingo Maurer designed the table lamp One From The Heart as a wedding gift for friends. The 95-centimeter tall luminaire measures 40 centimeters wide and is equipped with a 3-meter-long power cable and a cord reef with a slider. The heart as the central theme of this light object is formed on the one hand from red plastic and on the other from a mirror that appears to float above it. Depending on the surroundings, both the red heart and the light bundled in the shape of a heart are projected onto the wall.
The base of the One From The Heart luminaire is formed by two metal discs that overlap as if they were an intersection. Two crocodiles act as lamp bases and stabilize the upper of the two metal discs. Two wires spiral upwards from the center of the two metal discs - a red wire on one side and a blue wire on the other. Similar to the veins and arteries of the heart, these lifelines also flow into the heart of the One From The Heart luminaire. A movable mirror, which is stretched over the heart and also shaped like a heart, directs the light reflection to the individually desired spot.

One from The Heart is named after the 1982 romantic drama of the same name by Francis Ford Coppola. The light object was so well received by Ingo Maurer's friends and guests that it was eventually developed to series maturity and is still an integral part of the Ingo Maurer collection today. Other prominent designs by Ingo Maurer are: the stork legs "Bibibibi" (1982) made of red plastic, the pair of wings "Lucellino" (1992), the pendant lights "Porca Miseria!" (1994) and "Zettel'z 5" (1997) as well as Alizz T. Cooper (2008). Since the early 1980s, Maurer has cooperated with a group of developers who support him in the realization of his ideas.
"The quality of the light is more important to me than the form and so I concentrated on that," says Ingo Maurer , commenting on his work as one of the most important light designers.Designer of the 20th century. His lighting designs are preceded by the iconic "Bulb", which was created in 1966 by a twist of fate and has accompanied Ingo Maurer throughout its life: "The light bulb has always been my leitmotif, right from the start." Maurer's designs are diverse and are sometimes created in symbiotic cooperation with other designers, such as in 2012 with Moritz Waldemeyer for the LED luminaire with the telling name "My New Flame".
