The Papillona produced by Flos, is an iconic floor lamp designed in 1975 by Tobia Scarpa. Its essential and elegant style perfectly embodies the minimalist and innovative taste that characterized Italian design in the 1970s. The lamp consists of a long, slender vertical stem ending in an open butterfly-shaped diffuser, from which it takes its name “Papillona” (from the French “butterfly”). Painted aluminum frame with a glass top diffuser that allows for soft, indirect light diffusion. It works with halogen bulbs and features a dimmer (foot switch) to adjust light intensity. Small and square, it provides stability without weighing down the overall design. Designed in 1975, the Papillona fits into the period when Flos, under the direction of Sergio Gandini, was experimenting with new technologies and materials for domestic lighting. - Tobia Scarpa, son of the famous architect Carlo Scarpa, has always had a design approach between craftsmanship and industrial innovation, and this lamp is a perfect expression of that.
