Ala Desk lamp, Rodolfo Bonetto, Guzzini 1983

The Ala was designed by Rodolfo Bonetto for Guzzini in 1983. It is part of the collection of the Centre Pompidou. It has two pivot points plus a counterbalance system, making it highly flexible. If you ad up functionality, design and production level, this is still one of the most sophisticated, high end desk lamps around.
