Básica M2 table light
When creating the Básica table light in the late 1980s, Santiago Roqueta and Santa & Cole aimed to create a warmer alternative to the tubular metal structures and halogen bulbs so common at the time. This meant the revival of natural materials such as wood, paperboard or ribbons. This aesthetics challenged the dominant fashion at the time as it supported a warmer modernity that valued craftsmanship. It provided Santa & Cole with a springboard for international expansion, setting a new trend in Europe.///Description
The Básica lamp continues to make the same statement, 35 years later. A wooden column held up by a heavy metal base of the same diameter, supports a range of shades in different shapes and colours, eight in total. Although the lamp is well-balanced, an optional, wider base may be placed underneath.
