Frisbi Pendant Light

By Achille Castiglioni, 1978
Its name invokes the iconic toy best played in a park, but this light is seriously smart. Offering three types of illumination-diffused, direct, and reflected-the 1978 Frisbi creation doubles down designed Achille Castiglioni's ability to play with the power of illusion. Three barely-there, fine steel cables suspend the opal acrylic diffuser, making it appear as it if it is floating. A black metal stem and wire mesh basket assembly secure the reflector to its power cord. Inspiration behind the design: The work of Achille Castiglioni challenges us to look with renewed wonder at the objects that we see everyday. Like his other work, Frisbi inspires by astounding, changing our perspective in a way that blends fantasy with function.
