The FontanaArte Prima Signora is a floor lamp with a white blown-glass globe on a chrome-plated tripod, designed by Daniela Puppa in 1992.
A magnificent globe in white blown glass crowns the chrome-plated tripod. The surprising arrangement of these understated lines produces a very well-balanced result.
The Design Story
Daniela Puppa designed Prima Signora for FontanaArte in 1992. An opaline blown-glass diffuser sits on a chromed metal frame, giving diffused light that is dimmable with a sliding switch.
About the Designer
An eclectic architect and designer, style and elegance are Daniela Puppa's distinctive features. She graduated from the Polytechnic of Milan, was editor of the magazine Casabella and took part in the birth of Modo. She approached the world of design through her experiments with the groups Alchimia and Memphis, and has since ranged across furniture, lighting and textile design. In parallel, in Paris, she collaborates as a designer of accessories for the group LVMH and Dior. She has a longstanding relationship with FontanaArte: in the early 1980s, under the artistic direction of Gae Aulenti and together with Franco Raggi, she designed the installations for the company events. In 1992 she designed Prima Signora for FontanaArte, a floor lamp with timeless elegance. She teaches at the Politecnico di Milano in the Faculty of Industrial Design, at the IULM and at the Domus Academy in Milan, where she holds seminars about the connection between the fashion system and design.
