Topo Floor

Decorative Floor Lamp
Designed by Joe Colombo
1970

Topo is a fascinating object of automotive inspiration: the slits on the metal shell are reminiscent of the vents on a 1960s sports car, whilst the lampshade’s form corresponds to the casing of the classic E27 bulb it contains, like the bodywork encasing an engine. The jointed metal arms allow the lamp to be extend or retracted at will.
