The Design Story
Discovery is a family of appliances available in 3 diameters: Ø70, Ø100 and Ø140cm based on minimal geometry. Discovery Vertical Suspension is a seemingly unobtrusive, utterly absent and immaterial element.

Meet the Designer
Ernesto Gismondi (1931–2020), an aeronautical engineer by training, founded Artemide in 1960 with Sergio Mazza and led it for six decades, turning it into one of the world's leading lighting companies. He also designed many Artemide lamps himself, and in 2018 he received a Compasso d'Oro career award.
Why You'll Love It
- High color rendering (90+ CRI) keeps paper, wood and skin tones true.
- Rim hosts a LED strip injecting light into a clear surface.
- Diffuser is transparent when off, filled with light when on.
- Extruded and calendered aluminum structure. -PMMA optical plate diffuser with superficial laser processing.
Made for Real Life
Perfect for dining tables, kitchen islands, entries and open-plan living spaces. Good to know: it is made for dry indoor rooms, an electrician should hardwire it and special-order options come from Italy in 10–16 weeks.
