What can a catalogue of lamps look like today? If the manufacturer, as is the case of Oluce, is one of the historic names of Italian design, a catalogue can only live like this, nurtured on tradition and experience so as to move on towards new definitions. Moreover, Italian design, the best of it, has always developed along these lines, constantly endeavouring to surpass itself and constantly supported by an extraordinary business organisation, by a refined technological wealth and above all by each and every persons unfailing passion for his work. In the early nineteen-sixties Oluce had played host to the young Joe Colombo and has produced a range of items that are still in its catalogue; in the early nineteen-seventies Oluce had played host to the young Vico Magistretti, who soon became one of the great masters. Now, starting in the late nineteen-nineties, Oluce has also proved capable of opening its doors to new Italian and European designers so that they could bear witness with strength to the most recent trends. Each of them, with our experience behind them, has been left entirely free to express himself in his own specific language. Indeed, the corporate project and technical know-how were sufficient to create, albeit with due regard for their differences, to create a precise and common identity. Thus, the absolute geometries of Vico Magistretti, the now classical modernity of Joe Colombo, the discretion of Bruno Gecchelin and Tito Agnoli, have been joined by the poetic minimalism of Marta Laudani/Marco Romanelli, the disruptive energy of Toni Cordero, the dry words of Hans Peter Weidmann and Carlo Colombo, the expressive research of Tim Power, Francesco Rota and Ferdi Giardini, and the concise elegance of Sebastian Bergne and Harri Koskinen
