Santa & Cole Bib Luz Wall Light by Oscar Tusquets: A Unique Book-Shaped Lighting Solution

Discover the ingenious Bib Luz Wall Light, a design masterpiece by Oscar Tusquets for Santa & Cole. This innovative fixture blends seamlessly into your bookshelf, offering focused light while adding a touch of artistic flair to your space. Inspired by a book, the Bib Luz is a conversation starter and a practical lighting solution.

A Clever Design Inspired by Literature

Conceived by Oscar Tusquets in 1986, the Bib Luz was born from the need for a discreet and adaptable library light. Its distinctive book-shaped metallic body nestles among your books, almost disappearing until needed. A slender, adjustable arm extends from the "spine," culminating in a spotlight that directs light precisely where you need it. This unique design has garnered international acclaim, even inspiring a version by Ingo Maurer. This definitive edition, developed in collaboration with Tusquets and Santa & Cole, features enhanced LED technology for superior performance.
