Fontana Arte

Fontana Arte

FontanaArte, established in 1932 in Milan, is intricately woven into the fabric of Italian design history, championed by visionary Gio Ponti and his drive to forge a cultural unity amid industrial evolution. Born from the collaboration between Ponti and glass entrepreneur Luigi Fontana, the brand was conceived as a platform to nurture imagination and creativity, with a particular focus on the material qualities and malleability of glass. The ethos of FontanaArte embodies a timeless spirit, striking a harmonious balance between art and industry, evident in both its historic and contemporary productions. The brand's journey through almost a century reflects its commitment to innovation through the inventive use of glass and metal, essential materials that birth objects transcending mere beauty to become enduring and extraordinary. FontanaArte has garnered numerous accolades, including the prestigious Compasso d’Oro career award in 1998, acknowledging its role in creating a thriving environment through collaborations with various design visionaries. FontanaArte's design lamps have evolved into enduring icons that continue to redefine lighting concepts. In just a decade, the brand introduced objects that stand as icons, reshaping lighting design. Luminator, a floor lamp with indirect light and a nickel-plated brass frame, exemplifies this legacy. Designed by Pietro Chiesa, Luminator boasts abstract rigor and purity. Fontana, a halogen table lamp with blown glass, designed by Max Ingrad in 1954, is a timeless design object and a bestseller, offering multiple lighting options with a base and lampshade containing one or more light sources. The Pirellone, a floor lamp with a double lighting system, diffused and indirect, conceived by Gio Ponti in 1967, is another timeless classic with a satin nickel-plated brass structure and a diffuser in printed and curved glass. Gae Aulenti's Giova, dating back to 1964, is a hybrid lamp and vase, showcasing a chrome-metal base and a central sphere in transparent blown glass. The iconic creations within FontanaArte's catalog attest to the brand's enduring legacy in the realm of design lighting.
