An avant-garde icon of the 1950s, Pivotante à Poser was conceived by Charlotte Perriand as an architectural element. The light emission interacts with the material texture, volumes, dimensions and graphic signs created by the two rotating diffusers, which allow both closing and opening of the light beam for direct or indirect light.
To Charlotte Perriand, lamps were not a decorative element added for no reason, but a functional and technical component, a tool and an object answering to specific needs. Perriand’s minimalistic approach instills a timeless character in her creations: these are the “Useful Forms” that came from the movement she co-founded in 1949. Like Perriand’s furniture, her lamps are not immovable, but rotate and bend themselves, adjusting to our needs
