Enlightenment made in Italy

Since we met with Barbara and Fabrizio Bellini  first time in their  office in Resana, a small village an hour nothwest of Venice, years after the first designs for madetostay, we had the feeling that we could build something important for the market together…that feeling hasn’t changed until now!

When they took us to the spraying room filled with cocooned lamps and white steel frames ready to be sprayed and we saw the two girls in their white dresses spraying the metal frames with silk like strings coming out of the spraying pistol, llevitated in elegant parable bows onto the rotating frame.The longer the spinning pirouette went on the more the web resembled a silk cocoon. Put aside on big racks in the spraying room the web dried and a small tension started to create extraordinary beautiful double curved planes between the wires, our excitement was boiling!

When the final last two protecting layers of fluent polymers was sprayed on to the web, the sun sent ultra hot light beams through the room’s windows and illuminated the lamp-cocoons ,it was not an illusion, it was the essence of a long waiting for an aesthetic moment. Dedication to quality and willingness to work on perfecting the product in close contact with the designer is what makes Krelamp such a valuable partner to us.
