Oluce Coupé 1159/R Wall Lamp

The Coupé series, designed by Joe Colombo, was originally conceived as a variation on the Spider family, which was designed by the same designer and whose base and stem he retained. The simple, ingenious mechanism connecting the stem to the head allows the light beam to be directed in different directions by moving the dome up, down and sideways. In 1968, Coupé won the International Design Award of the American Institute of Interior Designers in Chicago. Coupé is part of the permanent collection of the MoMA in New York and the "Neue Sammlung" in Munich.
Coupé is available in two versions, with a semi-cylindrical or a semi-spherical dome. Over the years, many models of Coupé have been created (ranging from the historic table lamp to the floor and wall lamps), which have become one of the most well-known and appreciated Oluce collections.
