BEHIVE by Foscarini | Design: Werner Aisslinger, 2011

Nature is one of the sources of inspiration for Behive, a table lamp which, as the name suggests, recalls the shape of a beehive. Its portly, sensual and at the same time stylish shape was created by an overlapping sequence of rings, starting at the small base, from which the lamp appears to take off. Owing to the particular shape and tilt of the rings, the light source is not directly visible from any perspective, thereby enhancing the appeal of the lamp. Its soft and inimitable lighting effect turns it into a decorative ornament, that makes it very attractive.
Charming and magical when it is on, Behive turns into a poetic, domestic sculpture when it is turned off, revealing its dual, reversible nature: white turns black, light becomes shadow. This product stirs a unique emotion, perfect to distinguish an important, intimate setting, or to top a cabinet, a table or even the floor.
