Table lamp Una - designed in Italy by Carlotta de Bevilacqua for Danese -  utilizes the bare minimum requirements needed to produce a high-quality lamp. In fact, the Una lamp is so thin, I’m pretty sure I can even see the slight extrusion of where the wire runs from the base to its head.

The flatness of this light is both impressive and mind-boggling. Clean lines, can’t even begin to describe the detailed composition of this aluminum genius.

In my opinion, the best minimalist designs are those that disguise the inner complexities of an object. The fact that this paperthin lamp can house intricate circuits to power an LED is beyond me.
