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.
Topo is a table lamp with directable metal shell painted with glossy white, black, green, chrome or iconic red finishes. Inner shell painted white. Handle in black heat-insulating material. Articulated arms in metal, joints in black plastic material.
Available in the table-top model, with a black or red metal base in the iconic red version, with black polyethylene finish. Alternatively, it can be hung thanks to the practical screw clamp in black painted aluminium.
Design by Joe Colombo 1970
