50 years of Sintesi

Artemide celebrates the 50th anniversary of Sintesi with an exclusive reissue, honoring the very first lamp designed by Ernesto Gismondi. Introduced in 1975, Sintesi is an icon of design: essential, harmonious, and timeless. Its elegant form and meticulous attention to detail make it a versatile object, capable of bringing contemporary style and character to any space.

Flexible essentiality

The table version stands at the core of the reissue, representing the heart of the original modular system. Featuring a minimalist bent-metal form, the lamp is adjustable in height and angle thanks to its iconic Y-shaped support. The head, with E27 socket, reflector, and grid, combines adaptability and durability in a compact, functional design.
