Lightopia

Lightopia investigates the development of light design, taking a novel perspective by placing the current paradigm shift in the larger context of cultural history. The starting point for the book is the Vitra Design Museum’s extensive, never before seen lighting collection, from which particularly rare and important pieces are reproduced here―by designers such as Charlotte Perriand, Le Corbusier, Achille Castiglioni and Gino Sarfatti
