They are known throughout the world for their designs for lighting fixtures and furniture. In 1956, they were among the founding members of the A.D.I. (Industrial Design Association).

TacciaTaccia - Flos, *Design Classic, .
The Taccia lamp designed by Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni is in no uncertain terms a Design Icon

It was designed, by the Castiglioni brothers for Flos in 1962, and as with many of their other products of that time ( eg. The Arco & Toio Floor Lamps), a key design factor was to make the light functional by making it adjustable. It's style is very unique - some think it is ugly & cumbersome, but its beauty lies in its simplicity

The base is a fluted column of Aluminium - Classical Architecture combined with Industrial Materials. The Clear Glass Shade is a parabolic bowl, toped with an aluminium Reflector - which can be easily rotated to direct the light.

Designed to be stood on a Table, and available with the base in a choice of two colours, silver aluminium or black.
