A timeless icon designed by Alberto Meda and Paolo Rizzatto in 1985, Berenice was in the avant-garde with respect to the period of its creation, and even today the lamp remains a ground-breaking reference point in the world of contemporary design
Forty years after its debut, Berenice by Luceplan confirms its status as a timeless icon of Italian design, continuing to enthuse generations of creative talents and design lovers with the distinctive features that led to its immediate success. Designed in 1985 by Alberto Meda and Paolo Rizzatto for Luceplan, Berenice is the inimitable forerunner of an entire series of spring-balanced lamps with small dimensions. Slim and elegant, it offers all the functions that can be desired in a reading lamp: extreme ease of adjustment, smooth and precise movement, solidity and stability.
A spotlight that can be positioned in space with agility and ease, aiming its beam in the desired direction, thanks to the fluid movement of the jointed arms and the possibility of 360-degree rotation of the head of the lamp. Anchored to a solid, stable base, Berenice adds expressive allure to any space with versatility and precision, performing an essential function: to light the desktops of the most prestigious offices, as part of countless projects of remarkable interior design around the globe. Berenice has been reinvented over time, without ever losing its specific identity. Alongside the table version, variations have taken form, producing wall and floor lamps that extend the possibilities of use while conserving the distinctive characteristics of the original model: the system of balanced arms, the flexibility of movement, and the precise, comfortable and directional light source.
Luceplan celebrates this important anniversary by paying homage to a product that has continued – for forty years – to light up the present with the same elegance and personality it has embodied in the past. Still today, Berenice represents an outstanding reference point in the history of the company, driven by innovation, refinement and timeless quality.
