Astep VV Cinquanta Suspension Lamp
VV Cinquanta is a lighting collection that embodies elegance and versatility. Designed by Italian architect Vittoriano Viganó in 1951 during his time as Art Director for Arteluce, the VV Cinquanta features a posable direct light source that can swivel and tilt, from direct working light to upward lighting.
The Suspension model is a sophisticated luminaire with a distinctive dual-stemmed construction. It is a type of kinetic object constructed to take advantage of the principle of equilibrium, therefore the central pole might find its equilibrium in a way which is not perpendicular to the ceiling.
The invitingly playful design encourages dynamic lighting compositions. The fixture and the reflectors can be adjusted to many different positions, enabling a wide variety of both downward and upward lighting.
