Apollo 9 Table Lamp: Postmodern Design and Creative Craftsmanship
The “Apollo 9” table lamp, rechargeable and portable, is an unconventional contemporary design object in which a few elements with essential shapes combine to give life to an alien yet familiar creature.
The image of a spaceship launched to conquer space merges the futuristic aesthetics of twentieth-century space age imagery with the post-modernism of the Memphis collective, creating a luminous object with a strong identity, rooted in the history of design and projected towards the future .
Space-Inspired Lighting: The Apollo 9 Lamp Between Aesthetics and Innovation
This collection is characterized by the three cylindrical legs in solid Murano glass, available in different handcrafted glass textures (rigamenà or rigadin).
The capsule of the lampshade, handcrafted by Murano glass artisans, recalls the lunar surface with its irregular bubbles trapped in the transparencies of the glass. Available in a range of new shades and combinations, the lamp offers a variety of suggestive combinations to choose from.
Everything then revolves around the LED projector, the technological soul of the project. A cylinder in the center of the dome which also houses the rechargeable battery, the electronics for dimmer-touch ignition and the USB connection for charging. Different finishes are also available for the structural part: black nickel, chrome, copper and brass.
Choosing the Apollo 9 lamp means enriching your space on a journey to discover a creative world that combines design and craftsmanship, pop culture and technological know-how. A travel companion to illuminate your spaces and your dreams.

Designer
The Romani Saccani Architetti Associati design studio was founded in 1999 by the professional collaboration between architects Michele Romani and Mauro Saccani.
Each of their new concepts springs from a conscious reinterpretation of the memory of the past and becomes an act of synthesis between fantasy and concreteness, a challenge to the gravity of homologations and customs.
The more ‘simple’ the generating idea, the more successful the project will be: hence ‘simple’, which never means banal, understood as the first form of elegance and rejection of excess and vulgarity, as the essential and pure capacity to communicate the authentic meaning of things.
