Twiggy, terraby Marc Sadler

The elastic and coloured graphic appeal of Twiggy is an unmistakable sign in space, an exemplary marriage between thedesigner’s eclectic creativity and Foscarini’s research in the eld of materials and technologies. Suspended on a detachable rodmade of composite material, exible like a shing rod, heightadjustable using a system of counterweights, Twiggy is a simpleand genius idea, which has become an Foscarini icon and awarded outstanding success among both the public and the critics.The di user guarantees direct lighting in the area underneath the lamp and - thanks to the transparency of the upper protectiondisk - di uses a cosy ambient light. This lighting emotion is also vouched by Led version – a ording high energy e ciencylevels and durability - completely re-engineered in terms of lighting technology especially to ensure the same intensity,di usion and temperature as the light produced by the original version.
