Mega-Kite Floor Lamp by Marc Sadler for Foscarini — Italy circa 2000.

Exceptional floor lamp, Mega-Kite model (Terra version with telescopic height), designed by the designer Marc Sadler in the early 2000s and produced by the renowned Italian house FOSCARINI. As this model is no longer in production, it is a piece sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of contemporary lighting design.

The appeal of this piece lies in its imposing shade of moulded synthetic resin reinforced with fibreglass.

On the exterior: a texture striated with fine horizontal lines in subtle relief, directly inspired by the aesthetics of bamboo and rice paper, here reinterpreted in an ultra-resistant and lightweight composite material.

When extinguished, the floor lamp presents a minimal, highly sculptural silhouette. Once lit, the fibreglass weave reveals its graphic quality and filters the light with great softness, lending an enveloping atmosphere.
