Cuc Lamp, 1972

 

with Anna Bohigas and Lluís Clotet

Producer: Bd Barcelona Design

(Out of production)

This lamp is worm-like in shape (hence cuc in Catalan) and can be added to. A wire spring forms the internal structure, which supports an outer covering of translucent plastic. The light stems from a number of inner bulbs. The lamp was initially designed to provide a warm light for outdoor spaces. However, as it did not meet any of the requirements for external lighting, production soon stopped.
