aire by francesca bonfrate from italy
designer's own words:
Our idea arises from a personal and inner concept of eco-sustainability…simple gestures may help the environment.
AIRE is both an indoor and outdoor lamp, for intimate use. It consists of two parts: in one hand a translucent hemisphere diffuses the light sourcing from a fluorescent compact lamp; in the other hand a vertical-axis rotor – made of several blades – catches the wind power.
AIRE is not a mere Aeolian lamp, it has no cable, it is connected to nothing but nature, therefore it can be carried almost everywhere. It may get recharged hanging down from a window, a balcony or on a terrace, in a garden or in a camping area; moreover it can be used both indoors and outdoors, thanks to its IP grade 65.
AIRE means lightness, transparency, portability, hope for a simple gesture to help the environment.
