Taking its name from the Latin ‘Flos‘ means “flower” and is an Italian artificial lighting brand that aims to create objects; starting with a light bulb, that would change the way of life for both the Italian market and the foreign markets.
Their history goes back to Dino Gavina and the small Eisenkeil manufacturing facility in Merano, where he had already created furniture alongside design masters such as Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, Afra and Tobia Scarpa. When the early ‘60s came, Dino Gavina became convinced that it was time to create new lamps.
Using the same technology – conceived in the USA and tested at Eisenkeil – used for the Cocoon lamp, the Castiglioni brothers and the Scarpa duo began creating lamps from which the ‘Taraxacum’ or the ‘Fantasma’ lamps were created.
And so, from day one, Flos was already reinventing the idea of artificial lighting.

Molteni&Co was present at Salone del Mobile this year with a concept that is inspired by the houses of the great architects of the mid 20th century. The straight pure wall and ceiling volumes divide and emphasize the different spaces. These shifting volumes never touch each other, creating horizontal and vertical visual filters. The result is a bright and open architecture, with large green islands inspired by Californian gardens.
Among the several designs presented at the fair was this Gregor modular system created by Vincent van Duysen for Molteni&C.
It includes various straight, corner or peninsular units that can be mixed and matched together to give multiple combinations for a living space which is destined for conversation, reading or entertainment.
The steel base features a zinc finish, supported by small feet that recall Vincent Van Duysen’s most recent furniture designs – the Quinten sideboards or the Jan small tables which are covered in leather.
