Dreispitz has a linguistic simplicity that becomes its unique distinguishing feature: epitomizing intelligent production and composition, it allows optimal light performance in a large variety of spaces.

Dreispitz is a pure element, a Euclidean geometric form that is not only scenographic, but also
absolutely professional in the light emission generated through its compositions. A triangular central core houses the electronic components and can also accommodate management intelligence. On all three sides it supports light diffuser tubes that distribute the light emission softly and evenly in the space.

Intelligent modular construction allows the structure to be combined with a cylinder featuring
sharping controlled emission to respond to the needs of office environments with controlled UGR. This optical solution guarantees perfect perception, uniformity of lighting and high efficiency. In addition to the central optic version, the Dreispitz structure offers a wall version that comprises just two diffuser tubes and a minimalist fixing structure on the third side.

The system also supports linear modular development with 90, 120 and 150 cm elements. The standalone element becomes systemic with the introduction of a simple connector, which
allows maximum freedom to create compositional geometries in space, free from constraints.
Indeed, the bodies are connected by a cable that guarantees electrical connection without
dictating any pre-set angles. A single product with double emission thus adapts to the three dimensions of space with different standalone and systemic versions.

Dreispitz is a functional solution that is nonetheless poetic thanks to the simplicity of its geometry and the freedom it allows to create graphic compositions that combine horizontal and vertical elements. It can shape perception of the space, integrating into its surfaces or changing it with suspension lamps that create spatial rhythms and references. It represents industrial intelligence that can adapt to many different applications. It can be a professional tool for office environments, a functional solution for the world of hospitality, a distinguishing feature for common areas, a unique piece that is both poetic and timeless, with the ability to blend seamlessly with any setting. It is versatile and universal.

It is an unadorned, essential element that nonetheless has a strong, recognisable identity. Dreispitz is sustainable thanks to its intelligent industrial optimisation and the use of partially
recycled, recyclable and easily dismantled materials. Its use leads to a good energy balance due to high efficiency and dynamic management of emissions. Dreispitz is indeed modular and dynamic not just in terms of composition but also in terms of management possibilities, which through the Artemide App offer the utmost freedom to design the perfect lighting for every situation, encouraging waste-free awareness of light and leaving everyone free to create their own lightscapes.

Artemide celebrates the 10th anniversary of Ilio with a special autographed and numbered version of 2000 pieces.

Designed by Artemide’s founder Ernesto Gismondi, Ilio is an essential and timeless element. It is a synthesis of manufacturing and functional intelligences that is renewed thanks to a refined and sustainable shaded metal finish obtained with PVD technology. This gradation of shades, ranging from warm to cold, gold to silver, interacts with its surroundings by gently reflecting the colours.

Ilio 10 special edition is not only an extremely high-performing and efficient lighting product, but also an iconic and unique object. In fact, each piece of this limited edition is engraved with both Ernesto Gismondi's signature and serial number.

The finish obtained with the PVD (Phisical Vapour Deposition) process is another demonstration of Artemide's attitude towards an increasingly sustainable design and production. Dynamic light management with Artemide App makes each author aware of their own light.

Ilio 10 Special Edition celebrates the past while projecting into the future.

Helgoland is an efficient and perfectly controlled light principle that applies to an incremental, compact and optimised geometry, capable of casting good light into any space. The patented technology of the refractive optics is miniaturised and developed according to a hexagonal mesh that maximises the density of the luminous flux emitted.

The hexagonal geometry makes it possible to place the elements side by side without wasting space, according to the shape of a honeycomb. “This model is inspired by nature, by the intelligence of bees”. This geometry enables free, linear or radial-centric growth just as in these first versions of Helgoland. The power division of the LEDs helps to ensure good dissipation by reducing the overall footprint. At the same time, the different optical cells cooperate to achieve a high luminous flux which is expressed through a perfectly uniform light emission.

The extremely compact size and the hexagonal geometry with which they are combined guarantee the eradication of the multi-shadow effect. A hexagonal screen - which is essential to comfort as it avoids glare - develops around the circular lens which catches 100% of the flux emitted by the LED and controls it. The result is a very small optical motor, just 14.5 mm thick, which becomes a universal principle of light applicable in infinite situations.

Helgoland has an optimised construction also with respect to the structure of the various versions. The light engine is in fact an element which can be combined with various accessories for ceiling or recessed installation, with or without a frame, or with an adjustable arm that connects it to other systems and tracks in the collection such as Sylt.

Its minimal dimensions allow it to fit in with any surroundings at any time. Helgoland is sustainable in its reduction of materials, overall footprint, weight, optimised components, in the responsible use of energy thanks to an efficacy totalling 150lm/W.

Sylt takes the concept of a track capable of powering and supporting multiple lighting elements to the extreme, providing both high-tech and expressive beauty. “In an attempt to design what does not exist, it minimises the section of the track. It lays bare the essence of shining light into space, while expressing the beauty that derives from removing”.

The section of Sylt is just 5.5 X 12 mm. The two copper conductors, co-extruded with a section of thermoplastic insulating material, are left exposed to view yet fully safe. A slim band of harmonic steel runs along the back, forming the profile and allowing the different geometric shapes to be plied and retained. The track turns into a belt which can be bent at the construction site, simply, to accommodate any geometric shape dictated by the lighting requirements and by the architecture. It makes it possible to outline curves that are accentuated to different extents, free and sinuous shapes that come together with a wealth of light performance.

Sylt is a paradigm shift in the absence of geometric restrictions on its compositions, in the inclusiveness with which it accommodates multiple lighting elements, from the most innovative versions such as Helgoland, to high-tech solutions like Vector, minimal lamps like Sphere and a diffusing module, through to elements designed by other designers, such as Unterlinden by Herzog & De Meuron, Gople Mini and La linea 25 by BIG.

This system has been pared down to the minimum in its structure, but not in the performance it delivers. From a single point, it can run continuously for 10 metres, guaranteeing the utmost freedom in space and optimising the installation. The lighting elements connect to the track with an adapter which combines power supply, operation and mechanics.

The new Ixa luminaire family was created in 2022 in collaboration with Foster & Partners: inspired by the dynamic sculptures of Alexander Calder, the design follows the idea of "elegant balance" through precision engineering.

A spherical head that rotates freely through 360° separates the power supply from the mechanics. It is connected to the structure by a magnetic connection and can thus be conveniently orientated in all directions. In contrast to the table lamp, the wall and floor lamps combine spherical counterweights with multiple rotation points and can therefore be easily adjusted to different positions.

A larger version has now been added to the wall light, while the ceiling light version is another impressive addition to the family. An enlarged head compared to the previous versions has been recalibrated and rebalanced with the two arms, without the design losing any of its flexibility. Even in the XL version, the luminaire design remains an expression of a design that is both functional and environmentally conscious, in which materials and manufacturing processes are consistently selected on the basis of the lowest possible environmental impact. Aesthetically, Ixa XL proves to be just as sustainable: soft lines and the reduced, classic form make it a timelessly stylish object.
