Light and Structure: Deconstructing the Artemide Tolomeo

First introduced in 1987, Artemide’s Tolomeo lamp has always embodied a wonderful balance of functionality and timeless style and now it has a very 2025 motion homage courtesy of the South Korean CD team of Geonhee Lee and Minjong Kim.

Geonhee Lee and Minjong Kim: “This is a personal creative collaboration that visually interprets the sculptural qualities of the product and explores its inherent appeal and how it’s made, from the overall form to the smallest details.

“The product’s form was approached not just as an outer shape but as a structure, reflecting its mechanical characteristics. The creative direction focused on the mechanics of the object, its joints, its angles, and its robust build.”
