Succumb to the radical minimalism and retro warmth of this 1970s "Space Age" cube lamp. Made of vibrant scarlet plexiglass (methacrylate), this perfect geometric piece, 20 cm on each side, diffuses a soft, intimate, and intensely colored light. Presented in excellent condition in our showroom.

Geometric Purity and 70s Aesthetics

This luminaire perfectly summarizes the transition in design at the end of the 60s and early 70s, where designers abandoned embellishments to focus on primary forms and new plastic materials:

The Minimalism of the Perfect Cube: With its dimensions, this lamp is a minimalist statement. When off, it acts as a true pop and abstract sculpture placed on a piece of furniture.

Plexiglass, the Leading Material of the Era: Designed with carefully assembled tinted acrylic sheets (small discreet screws attach the red dome to its base), it exploits the translucency of the plastic.

A "Lounge" Lighting Ambiance: When the lamp is on, the red illuminates from within, revealing a gradient of light that radiates from the center to the walls. It does not aim to brightly light a room but to create a cozy, enveloping, and warm atmosphere.

Integration Versatility

Thanks to its flat base and compact silhouette, this lamp offers numerous possibilities:

As a Table Lamp or Side Table Lamp: Placed on a black or metal side table, it creates an architectural focal point.

As a Bedside Lamp: Ideal in a bedroom for ultra-soft ambient night light.

On the Floor: Its geometry also allows it to be placed directly on the floor in a corner of the room or on a teak credenza to contrast with the warmth of the wood.

💡 Gallerist's Style Tip

"Red plexiglass luminaires from the 70s love the company of metal or black lacquered furniture, like the pedestal on which it is displayed. For a total retro-futuristic look, pair it with chrome objects or molded white plastic furniture (Kartell or Artemide style): the red of the cube will literally make the space vibrate."
