Italian Style: Inspiration to Production
Kirk Mosna's Dragonfly lamp was named for its insect-inspired
tail and was designed for retail and commercial spaces. The
spot light was also inspired by lamps designed in Italy - a
country famous for lighting. Interlight, the Canadian importer/distributor
for Mosna's light, secured Egoluce, an Italian company, to
produce
the lamps.
So light and strong
The lamp, mounted on a track or suspended from a single point,
adjusts by rotating the tail clockwise. The light was one of
the first to use new halogen
lighting that no longer required standard heavy and expensive
transformers
and provided bright light from a smaller source. Over ten thousand
Dragonfly lamps have been produced. In Toronto, 450 of the
lamps
were used in the CN Tower. |
